## Abstract

A vehicle traveling information analysis device comprises: a reception unit that receives, from a plurality of vehicles, traveling information which includes location information and time information; a traveling information recording unit that stores, in a traveling information storage unit, the traveling information received from the reception unit together with identification information of vehicles; an analysis condition input unit that accepts, from a user, designation of an analysis condition which includes information pertaining to an analysis target road; an extraction region setting unit that sets extraction regions each having a predetermined area to a respective plurality of locations on a road map on the basis of the designated analysis condition; and a vehicle identification information extraction unit that extracts identification information of a vehicle having a record of traveling information in all the extraction regions which have been respectively set to the plurality of locations on the road map.

## Claims

### Claim 1

A vehicle travel information analysis device, comprising:
a map information storage configured to store map information that includes a road map;
a travel information storage configured to store travel information for a vehicle; and
a controller,
wherein the controller is provided with
a receiver configured to receive, from a plurality of vehicles, travel information that includes position information and time information,
a travel information recorder configured to store, in the travel information storage, the travel information received by the receiver together with vehicle identification information,
an analysis condition inputter configured to accept, from a user, a designation of an analysis condition that includes information regarding an analysis target road,
an extraction region setter configured to, based on the designation of the analysis condition accepted by the analysis condition inputter, set an extraction region that has a predetermined area to each of a plurality of locations on the road map, and
a vehicle identification information extractor configured to extract the identification information for the vehicles having a record of the travel information in all of the extraction regions that were respectively set to the plurality of locations on the road map by the extraction region setter.

### Claim 2 (depends on 1)

The vehicle travel information analysis device according to claim 1, wherein
the analysis condition inputter further
accepts, as the analysis condition, a designation of travel direction information that indicates a travel direction on the analysis target road, and
the vehicle identification information extractor further
extracts identification information for the vehicle for which a chronological order of the time information included in the travel information matches the travel direction information, said vehicle having a chronological order that matches the travel direction information and having a record of the travel information in each extraction region.

### Claim 3 (depends on 1)

The vehicle travel information analysis device according to claim 1, wherein
the receiver further
receives, from the plurality of vehicles, the travel information that includes progression direction information indicating a direction of progression by the vehicle,
the analysis condition inputter further
accepts, as the analysis condition, a designation of travel direction information that indicates a travel direction on the analysis target road, and
the vehicle identification information extractor further
extracts identification information for the vehicle for which progression direction information included in travel information matches the travel direction information, said vehicle having the travel information that matches the travel direction information in each extraction region.

### Claim 4 (depends on 1)

The vehicle travel information analysis device according to claim 1, wherein
the analysis condition inputter further
designates information regarding the analysis target road by accepting, from a user, designation of road identification information as the analysis condition.

### Claim 5 (depends on 1)

The vehicle travel information analysis device according to claim 1, wherein
the analysis condition inputter further
designates information regarding the analysis target road by accepting, from a user, designation of a start point and an end point of a road that is depicted on the road map as the analysis condition.

### Claim 6

A vehicle travel information analysis method executed by one or more computers that include
a map information storage configured to store map information that includes a road map and
a travel information storage configured to store travel information for a vehicle, the method comprising:
a receiving step of receiving, from a plurality of vehicles, travel information that includes position information and time information;
a travel information recording step of storing, in the travel information storage, the travel information received in the receiving step together with vehicle identification information;
an analysis condition input step of accepting, from a user, a designation of an analysis condition that includes information regarding an analysis target road;
an extraction region setting step of setting, based on the designation of the analysis condition accepted in the analysis condition input step, an extraction region that has a predetermined area to each of a plurality of locations on the road map; and
a vehicle identification information extraction step of extracting the identification information for the vehicles having a record of the travel information in all of the extraction regions that were respectively set to the plurality of locations on the road map in the extraction region setting step.
