There is provided a survey marker, and an image processing apparatus, method, and program capable of accurately detecting a survey marker from a captured image obtained by image capturing. The survey marker has a planar shape and includes a plurality of circles concentrically disposed, the plurality of circles including adjacent circles each having a different color. A candidate region extraction unit extracts a candidate region from a captured image obtained by image capturing of the survey marker, the candidate region being a candidate of a region in which the survey marker appears. A feature amount extraction unit extracts a feature amount of the candidate region. A discrimination unit discriminates the survey marker on the basis of the feature amount. The present technology can be applied to, for example, a case of detecting a survey marker installed on the ground from a captured image obtained by aerial image capturing.
