Abstract
In the present invention, a short-term route (provided at a timing for starting automatic driving) for automatic driving control that uses local environment map information generated constantly by a local environment map generation unit is generated continuously even when automatic driving is not set to an on state by an automatic driving switch. As a result, it is possible to instantly control the automatic driving of a vehicle by the continuously generated short-term route after transitioning to the on state of the automatic driving switch.
