  • a waiting point that is a candidate for the meeting point between the user and the vehicle is extracted based on the position data, and the waiting point is transmitted to the information terminal.
  • the number of waiting points extracted when the accuracy is low is larger than the number of waiting points extracted when the accuracy is high.
  • the information processing apparatus and information processing method set an area based on position data, extract a waiting point included in the area, and set an area with high accuracy when the accuracy is low. It may be wider than the area set in the case. As a result, even if the accuracy of the position of the information terminal is low, it is possible to reduce the possibility that a place that the user can easily reach cannot be extracted.
  • the information processing apparatus and information processing method according to the present embodiment may obtain a plurality of position data within a predetermined time, and the area may include a plurality of positions specified by the plurality of position data. .
  • the waiting point can be extracted from the entire area where the user moves frequently.
  • the information processing apparatus and information processing method determine whether or not the accuracy has been updated, and if the accuracy after updating is higher than the accuracy before updating, the area is reduced. may be As a result, when the accuracy of the user's position changes from low to high (for example, when the user moves from a place with poor communication conditions (such as underground) to a place with good communication conditions (such as above ground)), You can narrow down the number of points. As a result, it is possible to extract an appropriate waiting point that matches the latest position of the user.
  • the information processing apparatus and information processing method acquire the position of the vehicle, and if the accuracy is lower than a predetermined threshold, for each waiting point, determine the route along which the vehicle travels from the position of the vehicle to the waiting point. It is also possible to calculate a branch point at which the routes diverge from each other and set the branch point as the destination of the vehicle. As a result, the vehicle can travel to the user's surrounding area by driving the vehicle to the branch point. As a result, it is possible to reduce the possibility that the vehicle will arrive late at the waiting point where the user is to meet. As a result, user convenience can be improved.
  • the information processing apparatus and information processing method according to the present embodiment may calculate the arrival time of the vehicle at the destination and transmit the arrival time to the information terminal. Thereby, the user can recognize the arrival time of the vehicle dispatched to him/herself. As a result, user convenience can be improved.
  • the information processing apparatus and information processing method according to the present embodiment may transmit an input request requesting the user to input position data to the information terminal when the accuracy is lower than a predetermined threshold. This can reduce the possibility that the number of extracted waiting points will become enormous. As a result, it becomes unnecessary to calculate the route for each waiting point, and the calculation cost can be reduced. Furthermore, the waiting point can be extracted without being affected by the error due to the measurement of the position of the terminal.
  • the information terminal transmits position data and a dispatch request to the information processing device described above, receives a waiting point from the information processing device, and presents the received waiting point to the user. good. This allows the user to recognize the waiting point. Furthermore, the user can select a desired waiting point from a plurality of waiting points. As a result, user convenience can be improved.
