1. An information processing apparatus for remotely correcting movement of a machine tool on the basis of measurement data measured by a measuring instrument attached to the machine tool during a licensing period of the measuring instrument, comprising:
at least one processor; and
a memory storing instructions that, when executed by the at least one processor, cause the information processing apparatus to:
acquire maintenance information including the measurement data and identification information of the machine tool from the machine tool or the measuring instrument;
analyze the acquired maintenance information to calculate the licensing period of the measuring instrument and to determine if the measurement data is measured within the licensing period;
calculate an operation accuracy of the machine tool using the acquired maintenance information to obtain a calculation result;
generate correction information of the machine tool based on the calculation result and transmit the correction information to the machine tool; and
analyze the maintenance information and determine whether the measurement data is data measured during the licensing period of the measuring instrument,
wherein if it is determined that the measurement data is not the data measured during the licensing period, the correction information is not generated, and
wherein if the information processing apparatus determines that the measurement data is the data measured during the licensing period, the correction information is transmitted to the machine tool to correct the operation of the machine tool.
