An electronic device includes a GPS unit, a GPS information acquisition unit, a sensor information acquisition unit, and a reception condition determination unit. The GPS unit receives a radio wave from at least one of a plurality of positioning satellites. The GPS information acquisition unit acquires ephemeris information by the GPS unit and acquires satellite arrangement information of each of the plurality of positioning satellites acquiring the ephemeris information. The sensor information acquisition unit acquires geographical condition information of a current location at which the electronic device is present. The reception condition determination unit identifies the number of positioning satellites that the receiving unit can capture at the current location among the plurality of positioning satellites acquiring the ephemeris information based on the geographical condition information of the current location and the satellite arrangement information.
