INFORMATION PROCESSING DEVICE AND INFORMATION PROCESSING METHOD

An information processing device and an information processing method capable of appropriately handling a shielding region of a road are provided. The information processing device includes a first information conversion unit that estimates a first road region from an image obtained by imaging the road, a second information conversion unit that estimates a second road region from map information stored in a map information storage unit , and a difference extraction unit that extracts difference information representing a difference between the first road region and the second road region. Further, in the information processing method, a computer estimates the first road region from the image obtained by imaging the road, estimates the second road region from the map information, and extracts the difference information indicating the difference between the first road region and the second road region.
