Abstract:
Provided is a positioning information application system that is a configuration including a wearable device capable of acquiring the current position, and accurately determines and uses the position of the user; a gateway device; and a wearable device.Comprising a wearable device 2 that is worn by a user and can acquire the current position, and a gateway device 3 that is a device capable of near-field communication with the wearable device 2 and can acquire or stores the current position. The wearable device 2 and gateway device 3 work together to determine whether first positioning information P1 indicating the current position of the wearable device 2, or second positioning information P2 indicating the current position of the gateway device 3, more accurately indicates the location of the user 7 wearing the wearable device 2 (step S5A, S6A), and uses the positioning information determined to be more accurate as the position of the user 7 (step S7A, S13A, S14A).
