Abstract

An estimate image is generated from a position and an angle of a camera and the estimate image is stored. A collating unit collates an estimate image with a scenery image, and corrects estimate values of a position and angles of the camera according to a result of the collation. An indication image generating unit generates an indication image by processing indication information stored in an indication information storing unit, based on position information that shows a position of the camera and angle information that shows angles of the camera after the correction processing stored in a position and angle information storing unit.
