Claim 9:
10. A movement space information processing method of exchanging information with moving bodies movable in a space to thereby create spatial information including information related to the space, each moving body transmitting moving-body information item including at least position information regarding a position of the corresponding moving body, the method comprising:
acquiring the moving-body information items transmitted from the respective moving bodies using communications therewith;
analyzing the position information included in each of the moving-body information items to thereby determine, from the moving bodies, one or more moving bodies that are movably located within a predetermined movement range in the space;
identifying, from the determined one or more moving bodies, at least one moving body to accordingly perform a setting task of setting the identified at least one moving body as at least one representative moving body;
receiving, from the at least one moving body being set as the at least one representative moving body, the moving-body information item including probe information, the probe information being related to the space and extracted by the at least one representative moving body from an image of the space;
performing development of the spatial information based on the received probe information; and
determining, based on a degree of the development of a content of the spatial information related to the movement range, a representative moving-body ratio of the number of the at least one moving body identified as the at least one representative moving body to a total number of the determined one or more moving bodies that are movably located within the predetermined movement range.
