Distance correction device, processing device, sensor device, distance correction method, and recording medium

Abstract

In order to facilitate accuracy improvement in identification of a position of vibration on a road caused by a vehicle and detected through an optical cable, this distance correction device: derives, from vibration data for each optical fiber distance detected through an optical fiber installed along the road on which the vehicle travels, a first vibration value indicating the magnitude of vibration within a prescribed frequency range for the optical fiber distance; derives, from the first vibration value, a bridge optical fiber distance which is an optical fiber distance to a prescribed position of the optical fiber installed at a bridge; and corrects, from the bridge optical fiber distance and a road distance which is a distance, along the road, from a reference point to a bridge optical fiber position, the optical distance within a prescribed range so as to be closer to the road distance.
