A vehicle position determination apparatus includes a storage device that stores map information containing positions of terrestrial objects located around roads, a vehicle position estimator that estimates a current position of a vehicle in the map information, a camera that captures an image of an area around the vehicle, an area identifier that identifies an area in which a terrestrial object to serve as a recognition target is located, the area Q being identified in the map information based on a predetermined condition, a terrestrial object recognizer that recognizes, in the image, the terrestrial object in the area Q, a relative position calculator that calculates, in the map information, a relative position of the vehicle P with respect to a position of the terrestrial object recognized, and a position corrector that corrects the current position of the vehicle based on the relative position calculated by the relative position calculator.
