PERIPHERY MONITORING APPARATUS

A periphery monitoring apparatus includes: an acquisition unit configured to acquire a three-dimensional model image indicating an irregular state of a road surface, the three-dimensional model image including taken image data output from an imaging unit that takes a peripheral image including the road surface in a traveling direction of a vehicle and including height data that indicates heights of individual regions of the road surface represented in the peripheral image; and a control unit configured to superimpose an indicator indicating a height of the road surface based on the height data onto each region included in the acquired three-dimensional model image and display the three-dimensional model image on a display device.
