Abstract
Provided is a parking assistance device including a captured image acquisition unit imaging a road surface around a vehicle and an end detector detecting an end of a ground object on the road surface within a detection area in the captured image. A position calculator calculates position information indicating a positional relationship of the end of the ground object. A boundary line determiner determines whether or not a ground object having the end is a boundary line that defines a parking slot for the vehicle. A removal unit determines whether or not a rear end of a ground object determined as the boundary line by the boundary line determination unit is included in a removal range, determines that a ground object determined as the boundary line is not the boundary line when the rear end is included in the removal range, and excludes the ground object from boundary lines.
