Abstract

The present invention is an information processing device which registers in a map database, a charging point in which charging equipment is located at the time of charging of an electric vehicle, including a registration section that, in a case where the charging point is located within a facility area registered in the map database, registers in the map database, the charging point in association with positional information of the facility area.

Claims (21)

1. An information processing device which registers in a map database, a charging point in which charging equipment is located at the time of charging of a mobile object, comprising:

a registration unit that, in a case where the charging point is located within a parking lot which is registered in the map database, registers in the map database at the time of charging of the mobile object, the charging point in association with positional information of the parking lot; and

a registration prohibition determination unit that, if the charging point is located within the parking lot, determines whether or not the charging point is prohibited from being registered,

wherein the registration unit respectively hierarchizes positional information of the parking lot and the charging point into an upper level and a lower level of the map database, and registers the hierarchized data in the map database.

2. The information processing device according to claim 1 ,

wherein the registration unit registers a current position of the mobile object at the time of charging as the charging point in the map database.

3. The information processing device according to claim 1 ,

wherein the registration prohibition determination unit determines that the charging point is prohibited from being registered if the parking lot is a private facility.

4. The information processing device according to claim 1 , further comprising:

a display unit that displays the positional information of the parking lot and the charging point that are registered in the map database,

wherein the display unit simultaneously displays the positional information of the parking lot and the charging point associated with the positional information of the parking lot.

5. The information processing device according to claim 4 ,

wherein the display unit displays the charging point associated with the positional information of the parking lot, in a case where the mobile object enters within the parking lot.

6. The information processing device according to claim 1 , further comprising:

a position determination unit to determine whether the charging point is located within the parking lot.

7. An information processing device which registers in a map database, a charging point in which charging equipment is located at the time of charging of a mobile object, comprising:

a registration unit that, in a case where the charging point is located within a shopping mall which is registered in the map database, registers in the map database at the time of charging of the mobile object, the charging point in association with positional information of the shopping mall; and

a registration prohibition determination unit that, if the charging point is located within the parking lot, determines whether or not the charging point is prohibited from being registered,

wherein the registration unit respectively hierarchizes positional information of the shopping mall and the charging point into an upper level and a lower level of the map database, and registers the hierarchized data in the map database.

8. The information processing device according to claim 7 , further comprising:

a position determination unit to determine whether the charging point is located within the shopping mall.
