To obtain a ground control device capable of controlling train operation appropriately even when a difference occurs between a train position measured by a train and a train position grasped from interlocking information of an interlocking device.SOLUTION: A ground control device 200 includes a communication unit 210 for receiving interlocking information including information about a direction of a point, which indicates a state of a branch of the point, from an interlocking device 100, a communication unit 220 for receiving on-rail information indicating information about an on-rail position of a train 400 from an on-vehicle control device 500 mounted on the train 400 via a radio communication device 300, and a control unit 230 for determining whether a retreat disable flag, which does not allow the retreat of the train 400 while selecting a route of the train 400, is set based on the interlocking information and the on-rail information, generating route information including a route of the train 400 and the presence/absence of the setting of the retreat disable flag, and performing control to transmit the route information to the on-vehicle control device 500 via the radio communication device 300 from the communication unit 220.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 1 【課題】列車で測定された列車位置と連動装置の連動情報から把握される列車位置との間で差異が生じた場合でも、列車の運行を適切に制御可能な地上制御装置を得ること。【解決手段】地上制御装置２００は、連動装置１００から転てつ器の分岐の状態を示す転てつ器の方向の情報を含む連動情報を受信する通信部２１０と、列車４００に搭載された車上制御装置５００から列車４００の在線位置の情報を示す在線情報を、無線通信装置３００を経由して受信する通信部２２０と、連動情報および在線情報に基づいて、列車４００の経路を選択するとともに列車４００の後退を許可しない後退不可フラグを設定するか否かを判定し、列車４００の経路および後退不可フラグの設定有無を含む経路情報を生成し、通信部２２０から無線通信装置３００を経由して車上制御装置５００に送信する制御を行う制御部２３０と、を備える。【選択図】図１
