Abstract
A location identifying device includes an image data receiving part that receives data of a photographed image of a field taken from the air, and a location data receiving part that receives data of location, which is measured on the basis of navigation signals from a navigation satellite by a location measuring device while a mobile body having the location measuring device moves along a predetermined path set for the field. The location identifying device also includes a first shape data detecting part that detects a shape of the predetermined path from the photographed image data, a correspondence relationship determining part that determines a correspondence relationship between the shape of the path detected by the first shape data detecting part and the location data, and a field location identifying part that identifies a location of the field contained in the photographed image by referring to the determined correspondence relationship.
