La solution de la présente invention porte sur un dispositif de mesure de volume de trafic (10) comprenant: une unité d'acquisition d'informations (111) qui acquiert une image capturée sur laquelle l'image d'une surface de route est capturée et un instant de capture d'image; une unité de détection d'emplacement (114) qui détecte un emplacement de détection prescrit sur la base d'une région de véhicule qui est extraite de l'image capturée; et une unité de mesure (115) qui mesure, à titre de volume de trafic, un nombre de pics de vote qui sont obtenus relativement à des combinaisons d'emplacements de détection et d'instants de capture d'image.
