A shovel includes a lower traveling body that runs; an upper rotating body that is rotatably mounted on the lower traveling body; an attachment attached to the upper rotating body; a display device; and a processor that obtains a current shape of a target ground, calculates a recommended line that is suitable to excavate, with the attachment, the target ground having the obtained current shape, and displays the current shape of the target ground and the recommended line on the display device.
1. A shovel, comprising:
a lower traveling body that runs;
an upper rotating body that is rotatably mounted on the lower traveling body;
an attachment attached to the upper rotating body;
a display device; and
a processor that
obtains a current shape of a target ground,
calculates a recommended line that is suitable to excavate, with the attachment, the target ground having the obtained current shape, and
causes the display device to display a top surface of the current shape of the target ground and display the recommended line at a position between the top surface of the current shape of the target ground and a target that is apart from and below the top surface of the current shape of the target ground.
2. The shovel as claimed in claim 1 , wherein each time the target ground is excavated with the attachment, the processor updates the displayed recommended line to a recommended line that is calculated based on a shape of the excavated target ground.
3. The shovel as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the processor also calculates a recommended line for a shape of the target ground excavated with the attachment.
4. The shovel as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the processor obtains a shape of the excavated target ground based on at least one of an image of an excavated portion of the target ground captured by an imaging device and a transition of a posture of the attachment.
5. The shovel as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the processor also obtains an excavation length and an excavation depth.
6. The shovel as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the processor also displays, on the display device, excavation positions of the attachment excavating the target ground along the recommended line.
7. The shovel as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the processor calculates the recommended line based on the current shape of the target ground and a soil property of the target ground.
8. The shovel as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the processor displays, on the display device, recommended lines for multiple cycles that need to be performed to reach a target surface, which is the target, from the current shape of the target ground.
9. The shovel as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the processor calculates the recommended line such that the recommended line does not interfere with a buried object, and displays the calculated recommended line and an image indicating the buried object on the display device.
10. The shovel as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the processor also displays, on the display device, another recommended line in a top view of the target ground and one of a rotation direction and a rotation angle of the upper rotating body rotated to move the attachment to an excavation position to excavate the target ground along the another recommended line.
