LOCATION-ESTIMATING DEVICE AND COMPUTER PROGRAM FOR LOCATION ESTIMATION

A location-estimating device comprises a processor configured to acquire first locational information representing the location of a moving object for each first information acquisition time and calculate a first estimated location, acquire second locational information representing the location of the moving object for each second information acquisition time and calculate a second estimated location, and when the first estimated location has been determined, calculate the first movement amount and moving direction between the first information acquisition time and current time, and estimate the location at the current time based on the first estimated location, first movement amount and moving direction, or when the first estimated location is not determined, calculate a second movement amount and moving direction between the preceding second information acquisition time and current time, and estimate the location at the current time based on the second estimated location, second movement amount and moving direction.
