Claim One:
1. A map information display control apparatus for controlling display map information on the basis of information on image-capturing times and image-capturing positions, the map information display control apparatus comprising: a captured image extraction unit configured to extract images captured within a predetermined time period that includes the image-capturing time of a predetermined captured image from among the plurality of captured images; a map area selection unit configured to select an area of a map so as to include the image-capturing positions of the captured images extracted by the captured image extraction unit; a changed-image position determination unit configured to, when the predetermined captured image is changed to another captured image among the plurality of captured images, determine whether or not the image-capturing position of the other captured image is positioned within the area selected by the map area selection unit, wherein the map area selection unit does not change the area of the map when the changed-image-position determination unit determines that the other captured image is positioned within the selected area, and changes the area of the map so that the other captured image is used as a reference when the changed-image-position determination unit determines that the other captured image is positioned outside the selected area; and a map information display control unit configured to control display map information in such a manner as to include the area of the map that is selected by the map area selection unit.
