1. A method of causing a mobile body to autonomously navigate while comparing environmental magnetism data obtained in advance by measuring magnetism generated along a navigation path on which the mobile body navigates and measured magnetism detected by actually measuring the magnetism generated along the navigation path when the mobile body navigates along the navigation path, the method comprising:

  • a step (a) of detecting first measured magnetism and second measured magnetism in different positions on the mobile body; and

    a step (b) of causing the mobile body to autonomously navigate on the basis of the first measured magnetism or the second measured magnetism, which is specified by a matching property with the environmental magnetism data, and the environmental magnetism data.
