Abstract

Claims (37)

1. A surveying assistance system including an information display terminal and a surveying device, which is a three-dimensional scanner device or a three-dimensional laser scanner device, configured to measure a point cloud in a three-dimensional space, the surveying assistance system comprising:

a terminal display device configured to show a first image of a measurement site captured from a position of the information display terminal and a second image produced from information regarding the measurement site,

a surveying assistance unit configured to assist measurement performed by the surveying device, by using the terminal display device; and

a storage unit configured to store a pile information table in which pile identification information and pile position information are associated,

wherein the information display terminal shows, as the second image shown on the terminal display device, a recommended route from a current position of the information display terminal to a position of a movement destination,

the information display terminal shows, as the second image, an icon image of a pile point at a position of an actual pile, receives selection of the icon image of the pile point, and shows the recommended route from the current position of the information display terminal to the selected position, and

the information display terminal reads an identifier associated with the pile identification information from a pile installed at the measurement site, and corrects position information of the information display terminal according to a position of the pile corresponding to the pile identification information.

2. The surveying assistance system according to claim 1 , further comprising:

a point cloud amount display unit configured to cause the information display terminal to show, as the second image, the amount of point clouds for each of unit sections, the unit sections being acquired by dividing a display range of surveying information in an imaging range of the information display terminal.

3. The surveying assistance system according to claim 1 ,

wherein the information display terminal determines the movement destination of the information display terminal and shows the recommended route on the basis of a surveying scan plan set in advance.

4. The surveying assistance system according to claim 1 ,

wherein the terminal display device shows, as the second image, information regarding the measurement site located in a blind spot in the first image.

5. The surveying assistance system according to claim 1 , further comprising:

an external device,

wherein the information display terminal reflects a drawing input using the external device into drawing content of the second image of the terminal display device, the external device sharing the first image and the second image with the information display terminal.

6. An information display terminal, comprising:

a terminal display device configured to show a first image of a measurement site captured by a terminal imaging unit and a second image produced from information regarding the measurement site;

a surveying assistance unit configured to assist measurement performed by a surveying device, which is a three-dimensional scanner device or a three-dimensional laser scanner device, that measures a point cloud in a three-dimensional space, by using the terminal display device; and

a storage unit configured to store a pile information table in which pile identification information and pile position information are associated,

wherein the terminal display device shows, as the second image a recommended route from a current position of the information display terminal to a position of a movement destination;

the terminal display device shows, as the second image, an icon image of a pile point at a position of an actual pile, receives selection of the icon image of the pile point, and shows the recommended route from the current position of the information display terminal to the selected position; and

the surveying assistance unit reads an identifier associated with the pile identification information from a pile installed at the measurement site, and corrects position information of the information display terminal according to a position of the pile corresponding to the pile identification information.

7. A surveying assistance method for a surveying assistance system including an information display terminal and a surveying device, which is a three-dimensional scanner device or a three-dimensional laser scanner device, configured to measure a point cloud in a three-dimensional space, the surveying assistance method comprising:

showing, on a terminal display device, a first image of a measurement site captured from a position of the information display terminal and a second image produced from information regarding the measurement site,

assisting measurement performed by the surveying device, by using the terminal display device via a surveying assistance device; and

storing, in a storage unit, a pile information table in which pile identification information and pile position information are associated,

wherein the information display terminal shows, as the second image shown on the terminal display device, a recommended route from a current position of the information display terminal to a position of a movement destination;

the information display terminal shows, as the second image, an icon image of a pile point at a position of an actual pile, receives selection of the icon image of the pile point, and shows the recommended route from the current position of the information display terminal to the selected position,

the information display terminal reads an identifier associated with the pile identification information from a pile installed at the measurement site, and corrects position information of the information display terminal according to a position of the pile corresponding to the pile identification information.

8. A non-transitory computer readable storage medium storing a surveying assistance program for a surveying assistance system including an information display terminal and a surveying device, which is a three-dimensional scanner device or a three-dimensional laser scanner device, configured to measure a point cloud in a three-dimensional space, the surveying assistance program being configured to cause a computer to execute:

showing, on a terminal display device, a first image of a measurement site captured from a position of the information display terminal and a second image produced from information regarding the measurement site;

assisting measurement performed by the surveying device, by using the terminal display device via a surveying assistance device; and

storing, in a storage unit, a pile information table in which pile identification information and pile position information are associated,

wherein the information display terminal shows, as the second image shown on the terminal display device, a recommended route from a current position of the information display terminal to a position of a movement destination;

the information display terminal shows, as the second image, an icon image of a pile point at a position of an actual pile, receives selection of the icon image of the pile point, and shows the recommended route from the current position of the information display terminal to the selected position; and

the information display terminal reads an identifier associated with the pile identification information from a pile installed at the measurement site, and corrects position information of the information display terminal according to a position of the pile corresponding to the pile identification information.
