Abstract
A video management apparatus includes a video database for holding a plurality of pieces of video information each associated with an image position, a geographic information database for holding a plurality of pieces of geographic information each indicating a position of a different one of spots on a map, and a controller. The controller extracts spots located within a first range from a current position as a first spot group, based on the current position and the plurality of pieces of geographic information. Further, the controller extracts spots located within a second range from the image position as a second spot group, based on the image position and the plurality of pieces of geographic information. Then, the controller selects video information from the plurality of pieces of video information, based on a similarity degree of the second spot group with respect to the first spot group.
