Abstract
There is provided an apparatus and a method that allows appropriate pulling over of a mobile object to a safe road shoulder when an emergency occurs during automated driving. A travelable region available for a vehicle to travel is set like an occupancy map based on distance information from a depth sensor. Image attribute information is generated from an image by semantic segmentation. An evacuation space is set in the travelable region based on the image attribute information that represents the situation of the road surface of the travelable region, and thus an evacuation space map is created.
