INFORMATION PROCESSING APPARATUS, INFORMATION PROCESSING METHOD, AND RECORDING MEDIUM

An information processing apparatus includes an acquisition unit configured to acquire a feature point cloud indicating a three-dimensional shape of an environment where a moving object travels, and an output unit configured to output a two-dimensional map indicating positions of feature points on a two-dimensional plane excluding feature points that represent a feature of a ceiling in the environment or a travel surface of the moving object from the feature point cloud.
