ABSTRACT:
There is provided e.g. an image recognizing apparatus which can increase the recognition rate of the image of a recognition target even when the recognition rate in the image recognition operation would deteriorate otherwise due to inability of obtaining good image information on the recognition target, if the operation relied solely on picked up image information.The apparatus includes an image information obtaining section3, an imaging position obtaining section7, a land object information storing section8, a land object information obtaining section9for obtaining, from the land object information storing section8, the land object information on one or more land objects included within an imaging area of the image information, a determining section15for determining whether or not a plurality of recognition target land objects to be recognized are included within the imaging area of the image information, based on the obtained land object information and an image recognizing section10for recognizing an image of one recognition target land object, based on result of image recognition of another recognition target land object and on position relationship between the one recognition target land object and another recognition target land object based on the position information included in the land object information, if the determining section has determined that a plurality of recognition target land objects are included.
