1. A position calculating method comprising:

  • performing a first operational process of calculating at least a position of a moving object using the measurement result of an inertial positioning unit disposed in the moving object;

    performing a second operational process of calculating the position of the moving object using the result of the first operational process and the measurement result of a satellite positioning unit disposed in the moving object; and

    adjusting an operational coefficient of the first operational process using the result of the first operational process and the result of the second operational process,wherein the measurement result of the inertial positioning unit includes an inertial positioning position,wherein the first operational process includes a predetermined error estimating operation of estimating a first position error included in a calculated first operational position,wherein the adjusting of the operational coefficient includes;

    estimating an inertial positioning error included in the inertial positioning position using the first position error and a second operational position calculated in the second operational process; and

    adjusting the operational coefficient using the inertial positioning error, and wherein the estimating of the inertial positioning error includes;

    calculating a difference between the inertial positioning position and the second operational position; and

    calculating the inertial positioning error by averaging the first position error and the difference.
