Abstract
A map system includes a vehicle apparatus that is mounted to a vehicle. The map system includes an imaging apparatus, a server, and an integrating unit. The imaging apparatus captures an image of a surrounding area of the vehicle. The server generates a map using data that corresponds to feature points extracted from the image captured by the imaging apparatus that is transmitted from the vehicle apparatus. The integrating unit weights the pieces of data that are transmitted from a plurality of vehicle apparatuses based on bias in the pieces of data and generates a map by integrating at least a portion of the plurality of pieces of data based on the weighting.
