Abstract

Provided are an apparatus and a method for generating a two-dimensional map or a surround-view image in which an object with low position reliability is set as an enlarged display object. A data processing section configured to receive an image captured by a camera that captures the image of surroundings of a vehicle and generate a two-dimensional map including objects in the surroundings of the vehicle is included. The data processing section generates the two-dimensional map or a surround-view image including an enlarged display object having an enlarged region set thereto, the enlarged region which, in case of an object with low position reliability, extends around the object.
