8 . A method performed by an information processing apparatus configured to determine a travel route for an autonomous vehicle traveling in a facility, the method comprising:
receiving, via wired or wireless communication, operation information on disaster prevention equipment installed in the facility, the operation information being determined based on electrical signals that change with operations of the disaster prevention equipment or disaster prevention equipment image information including images of the disaster prevention equipment;
determining the travel route for the autonomous vehicle based on the operation information on the disaster prevention equipment installed in the facility, and vehicle position information indicating a position of the autonomous vehicle; and
transmitting, via wired or wireless communication, to the autonomous vehicle, travel route information indicating the travel route,
wherein the travel route for the autonomous vehicle is determined based on operation frequency calculated based on the operation information acquired in advance when no operation information can be acquired.
9 . The method according to claim 8 , wherein the determining of the travel route includes determining the travel route so as not to include a passageway within a predetermined range from a position at which the disaster prevention equipment that is indicated in the operation information as being in operation is installed.
10 . The method according to claim 8 , wherein the determining of the travel route includes determining the travel route based on first image information including an image of a passageway in the facility, the image being captured by an imaging apparatus installed in the facility an operation frequency calculated based on the operation information acquired in advance.
11 . The method according to claim 10 , wherein the determining of the travel route includes:
determining a damaged passageway based on the first image information; and
determining the travel route so as not to include the damaged passageway.
12 . The method according to claim 8 , wherein the determining of the travel route includes further determining the travel route based on user position information indicating a position of a user in the facility, the user being scheduled to board the autonomous vehicle.
13 . The method according to claim 8 , further comprising changing the travel route based on second image information including an image around the autonomous vehicle, the image being captured by an imaging module of the autonomous vehicle traveling along the travel route.
14 . The method according to claim 13 , wherein the changing of the travel route includes:
determining a damaged passageway based on the second image information; and
changing the travel route so as not to include the damaged passageway.
15 . A non-transitory computer readable medium storing a program configured to cause an information processing apparatus to execute operations, the information processing apparatus being configured to determine a travel route for an autonomous vehicle traveling in a facility, the operations comprising:
receiving, via wired or wireless communication, operation information on disaster prevention equipment installed in the facility, the operation information being determined based on electrical signals that change with operations of the disaster prevention equipment or disaster prevention equipment image information including images of the disaster prevention equipment;
