1. A position calculating method comprising:
- calculating a position of a mobile body based on a positioning signal from a positioning satellite;
determining a moving condition of the mobile body based on a detection result of a sensor unit including at least one of an acceleration sensor, an angular speed sensor, and an azimuth sensor;
changing an error parameter used for a predetermined Kalman filter process according to the determined moving condition, the error parameter being parameters corresponding to diagonal components of an east position, north position, moving speed, and azimuth per time of a condition vector; and
correcting the calculated position by the Kalman filter process.
