1. A departure/destination location extraction apparatus, comprising:
- a travel history accumulation unit configured to store a travel history of a vehicle, including a plurality of parking positions of the vehicle; and
a position extraction unit configuredto extract, among the parking positions stored in the travel history accumulation unit, one or more pairs of the parking positions where a distance between the parking positions in each of the pairs of the parking positions is less than or equal to a predetermined first threshold, each of the pairs being treated as a set of candidate points, andto extract an area including the candidate points that would be connected as a whole if the parking positions in each of the sets were connected with each other, as at least one of a departure location and a destination location.

4. A departure/destination location extraction method, the method being executed by a computer, the method comprising:
-
a travel history accumulation step storing a travel history of a vehicle, including a plurality of parking positions of the vehicle; and a position extraction step extracting, among the parking positions stored in the travel history accumulation step, one or more pairs of the parking positions where a distance between the parking positions in each of the pairs of the parking positions is less than or equal to a predetermined first threshold, each of the pairs being treated as a set of candidate points, and extracting an area including the candidate points that would be connected as a whole if the parking positions in each of the sets were connected with each other, as at least one of a departure location and a destination location.
