PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an imaging control apparatus, an imaging control method, and a program capable of giving imaging conditions proper to plural imaging optical systems.SOLUTION: This imaging control apparatus 10 comprises: area-by-area index value calculation means 212 for calculating an area-by-area index value for evaluating a photographing state, with respect to each division area constituting plural captured images captured by plural imaging optical systems (20A, 22A, 20B, 22B); whole evaluation value calculation means 214 which, on the basis of the area-by-area index value of each division area calculated by the area-by-area index value calculation means 212, evaluates the plural images including overlapping regions between the captured images and calculates the whole evaluation value; and condition determination means 216 which, on the basis of the whole evaluation value calculated by the whole evaluation value calculation means, determines imaging conditions for the plural imaging optical systems.
