An information processing apparatus and an information processing method enables enhancement of accuracy in recognition of locations of a moving body. The information processing apparatus is arranged on a moving body and includes an own-location recognition block that recognizes, based on an image taken from the moving body, a first own location of the moving body. A moving body recognition block recognizes a relative location of another moving body relative to the moving body in the image taken from the moving body, and a communication block executes communication with the another moving body to obtain the absolute location of the another moving body, An own location computation block computes, based on the absolute location of the another moving body and the relative location of the another moving body, a second own location of the moving body.
