Abstract

Disclosed is an information processing method comprising the steps of: storing measured position information in association with first time information representing times of day at which the measured position information is obtained; storing video information in association with second time information representing times of day at which the video information is obtained; and associating the measured position information with the video information in accordance with degrees of difference between the first time information and the second time information.

Claims

1. An information processing method comprising:

obtaining content data and position data in association with the content data; and

displaying an indication indicating the content data is associated with the position data which is obtained when the position data fulfills a predefined condition.
