Abstract
There is provided with an information processing apparatus. From an image capturing apparatus which can move, a captured image of an object is obtained. The position of the image capturing apparatus is derived using the captured image and a three-dimensional map. The three-dimensional map is corrected using information indicating a reliability of: information indicating the three-dimensional position of the feature included in a predefined area in the three-dimensional map held by the holding unit; and information indicating a three-dimensional position of another feature of the object, the information obtained based on the captured image from an expanded area of the predefined area in the three-dimensional map held by the holding unit.
