In order to provide a position specification processing device made to accurately output the floor of a building on which a mobile information processing device is located in a case where the position of the mobile information processing device is output, this position specification processing device receives reference standard information, namely, information about atmospheric pressure, information about air temperature, and information about elevation; receives information about the atmospheric pressure at the position where the mobile information processing device is located; receives an elevation calculated on the basis of the reference standard information and the information about the atmospheric pressure; receives the results of specifying the floor corresponding to the elevation; receives the floor of the owner of the mobile information processing device, which is detected on the basis of the status of the owner; receives the result of determining whether the floor of the detection result and the floor of the specification result are different; uses the floor of the detection result to correct the floor of the specification result if the determination result indicates that a determination has been made that the floors are different; and outputs the corrected floor if the determination result indicates that a determination has been made that the floors are different.
