FIG. 5 is a block diagram showing a functional configuration of the photographing system 1. When the processor 111 of the information processing apparatus 11 performs processing according to the program according to the present embodiment, the processor 111 includes a whole image acquisition unit 1111, a partial image acquisition unit 1112, an object detection unit 1113, and a display control unit 1114. And functions as an operation detection unit 1115. In FIG. 5, the description of the interface 115 is omitted.

The whole image acquisition unit 1111 acquires image data representing the whole image from the whole shooting camera 12. The partial image acquisition unit 1112 acquires image data representing a partial image from each of the 12 partial photographing cameras 13. The image data acquired by the whole image acquisition unit 1111 and the partial photographing camera 13 is stored in the storage unit 112 as an image data file, and their file names are registered in the image DB.

The object detection unit 1113 reads out the image data of the whole image stored in the storage unit 112, performs image recognition processing on the whole image represented by the read image data, and makes the whole image the image of the infrastructure equipment 4 to be inspected. To determine if is included. If the image of the infrastructure equipment 4 to be inspected is not included, the partial image taken at the same date and time as the whole image is unnecessary, so the image data file of the partial image is deleted from the storage unit 112 and deleted. Delete the file name of the created image data file from the image DB.

The display control unit 1114 controls the display of the image by the display unit 113. In the present embodiment, the screen displayed by the display unit 113 includes a "search screen" which is a screen for the inspector to search for an image of the infrastructure equipment 4 to be inspected while sequentially browsing the entire image, and an inspector. There is a "detailed display screen" which is a screen for inspecting the state of the infrastructure equipment 4 while viewing the detailed image of the infrastructure equipment 4 included in the whole image.

FIG. 6 is a diagram schematically showing a screen displayed by the display unit 113. FIG. 6A shows a search screen, and FIG. 6B shows a detailed display screen. In the area P of the search screen, the entire screen is sequentially displayed as a moving image in chronological order. In FIG. 6A, a broken line and a range corresponding to the partial image are shown in the area P by “A1” to “A12”, but they may not be displayed on the actual detailed display screen.

On the detail display screen, the inspector can touch the button arranged in the area Q to play, pause, fast forward, and fast rewind the moving image displayed in the area P. The inspector searches for the infrastructure equipment 4 to be inspected while watching the video displayed in the area P, and when the appearance of the infrastructure equipment 4 is detected, the video is paused and then the image of the infrastructure equipment 4 included in the whole image. Specify the position inside by touch operation. In response to the operation, the display unit 113 displays a detailed display screen as shown in FIG. 6B.

In the area R of the detail display screen, the shooting range including the position specified by the inspector among the partial images with the same shooting date and time as the shooting date and time of the entire image displayed on the search screen immediately before switching to the detail display screen. A partial image (still image) is displayed. The inspector observes the image of the infrastructure equipment 4 displayed in the area R, inspects the state, and then inputs the inspection result and the comment in the area S. The inspection results and comments input to the area S are registered in the data record of the image DB corresponding to the partial image displayed in the area R.

In the area R of the detailed display screen, the inspector can perform the pinch-out and pinch-in operations to enlarge and reduce the partial image.

The inspector searches for the infrastructure equipment 4 based on the entire image displayed as a moving image on the search screen, and when the appearance of the infrastructure equipment 4 is detected, the display is switched from the search screen to the detailed display screen to detail the status of the infrastructure equipment 4. The infrastructure equipment 4 is inspected by observing the partial image (still image) shown in. By repeating these operations, it is possible to efficiently inspect various infrastructure facilities 4 around the track 3.

The description of the functional configuration of the information processing apparatus 11 will be continued with reference to FIG. When displaying the search screen on the display unit 113, the display control unit 1114 sequentially reads the image data of the entire image from the storage unit 112 in chronological order, and sequentially displays the images represented by the read image data on the display unit 113. Let me.

Further, when the display control unit 1114 displays the detailed display screen on the display unit 113, the display control unit 1114 refers to the image DB and is the same as the entire image displayed on the search screen when the operation by the inspector is performed. Of the partial images associated with the date and time information, the image data of the partial image of the shooting range including the position specified by the inspector is read from the storage unit 112, and the image represented by the read image data is displayed on the display unit 113. ..

The operation detection unit 1115 detects the operation performed by the inspector using the operation unit 114. The result of detection by the operation detection unit 1115 is notified to the display control unit 1114.

FIG. 7 is a diagram showing a flow of image registration processing by the information processing apparatus 11. The information processing apparatus 11 performs the processing shown in FIG. 7 at each frame rate (for example, every 1/30 second) in the whole shooting camera 12 and the partial shooting camera 13.

First, the whole image acquisition unit 1111 acquires the image data of the whole image from the whole image shooting camera 12 and stores it in the storage unit 112 (step S701). In parallel with the process of step S701, the partial image acquisition unit 1112 acquires the image data of the partial image from each of the partial photographing cameras 13 and stores it in the storage unit 112 (step S702).

In steps S701 and S702, a new data record is added to the image DB, the image data file names of the whole image and the partial image, the date and time information indicating the date and time at that time, and the measurement by the GNSS unit 14 at that time. The position information indicating the position is registered in the newly added data record.

Subsequently, the object detection unit 1113 performs image recognition processing on the entire image stored in the storage unit 112 in step S701 (step S703). Subsequently, the object detection unit 1113 determines whether or not the infrastructure equipment 4 to be inspected is included in the entire image based on the result of the image recognition process (step S704).

When it is determined that the infrastructure equipment 4 to be inspected is included in the entire image (step S704; YES), the object detection unit 1113 is based on the range occupied by the image of the infrastructure equipment 4 to be inspected in the entire image, and the infrastructure thereof. A partial image including the image of the equipment 4 is specified (step S705). For example, when the entire image illustrated in FIG. 6A is acquired in step S701, the object detection unit 1113 is an infrastructure that is captured in the shooting range of the angles of view A1, A5, and A9 in the image recognition process of step S703. Recognize equipment 4. In this case, the object detection unit 1113 specifies the partial images of the angles of view A1, A5, and A9 as the partial images including the image of the infrastructure equipment 4 in step S705.

Subsequently, the object detection unit 1113 deletes from the storage unit 112 the image data of the partial image other than the partial image specified in step S705 among the image data of the partial image stored in the storage unit 112 in step S702. , Delete the file names of those image data from the image DB (step S706).

If it is determined in step S704 that the entire image does not include the infrastructure equipment 4 to be inspected (step S704; NO), the object detection unit 1113 has all the data stored in the storage unit 112 in step S702. The image data of the partial image is deleted from the storage unit 112, and the file name of the image data is deleted from the image DB (step S706).

The process of step S706 is a process for avoiding unnecessary use of the storage capacity of the storage unit 112 by not holding an unnecessary partial image in which the infrastructure equipment 4 is not shown in the storage unit 112. By the process of step S706, the information processing apparatus 11 ends the series of processes of FIG. 7.

According to the above-mentioned imaging system 1, the inspector can inspect the infrastructure equipment scattered around the moving path of the moving body without having to go to the site. At that time, the inspector browses the entire image displayed on the search screen, searches for the infrastructure equipment to be inspected, and then observes a clear image of the searched infrastructure equipment on the detailed display screen to display the infrastructure equipment. The condition can be inspected with the same accuracy as when visually inspecting the real thing in the field.

Further, in the above-mentioned photographing system 1, since the partial image in which the infrastructure equipment to be inspected is not captured is not held in the storage unit, the inconvenience that the storage capacity of the storage unit is occupied by unnecessary data does not occur.

[Modification example]
The embodiments described above can be variously modified. An example of these variations is shown below. The above-described embodiment and the modifications shown below may be combined as appropriate.

(1) In the above-described embodiment, when it is determined that the entire image of the image of each frame does not include the infrastructure equipment 4 to be inspected, the corresponding partial image is deleted from the storage unit 112. Instead of this, the amount of data of the partial image may be reduced and stored.

For example, the object detection unit 1113 performs a conversion process for reducing the bit rate for a partial image in which the infrastructure equipment 4 to be inspected is not shown, and stores the image data of the converted partial image in the storage unit 112. The conversion process for reducing the bit rate includes a process for reducing the frame rate (for example, a process for converting a moving image containing a partial image of 30 frames per second into a moving image containing a partial image of 10 frames per second) and a process for reducing the resolution. Processing (for example, processing for converting a partial image of 50 million pixels to a partial image of 5 million pixels), processing for reducing the number of gradations (for example, a partial image of gradation expressed by 24 bits, with 8 bits Processing to convert to a partial image of the gradation to be expressed) and the like.

(2) In the above-described embodiment, the full-shooting camera 12 and the partial shooting camera 13 of the shooting system 1 are mounted on the same train 2, but the full-shooting camera 12 and the partial shooting camera 13 are used. It may be mounted on different trains.

The train 2A is operated, and the photographing system 1 captures the entire image with the overall imaging camera 12 during operation, stores the image data file in the storage unit 112, and generates a data record for each of the entire images in the image DB. .. The object detection unit 1113 of the information processing apparatus 11 performs image recognition processing on the entire image, detects the infrastructure equipment 4 to be inspected from the entire image, and sets the range in which the detected infrastructure equipment 4 is shown as the shooting range. A flag indicating that there is an infrastructure facility 4 to be inspected is stored in association with the "partial image 1" to "partial image 12" columns corresponding to the partial photographing camera 13.

Next, the train 2B equipped with the partial photographing camera 13 is operated. The information processing apparatus 11 extracts a data record including a flag indicating that the infrastructure equipment 4 to be inspected exists from the image DB, and when the train 2B passes through the position indicated by the position information included in the extracted data record. The partial photographing camera 13 corresponding to the "partial image 1" to "partial image 12" columns associated with the flag indicating that there is the infrastructure equipment 4 to be inspected is instructed to take a picture. In response to this instruction, image data indicating an image taken by the partial photographing camera 13 is acquired by the partial image acquisition unit 1112.

As described above, in the photographing system according to the present modification, the photographing position of the entire image in which the infrastructure equipment 4 to be inspected is detected among the entire images taken by the overall photographing camera 12 mounted on the train 2A is set as the train. When 2B passes, a partial image is captured and stored by the partial imaging camera 13 mounted on the train 2B, and the train 2B passes through the capture position of the entire image in which the infrastructure equipment 4 to be inspected is not detected. Occasionally, the partial image is not captured by the partial photographing camera 13.

Further modifying the above modification, when the train 2B passes through the shooting position of the entire image in which the infrastructure equipment 4 to be inspected is not detected, the train takes the shooting position of the entire image in which the infrastructure equipment 4 to be inspected is detected. A configuration may be adopted in which a partial image having a smaller amount of data than when 2B passes is acquired and stored.

In this modification, the object detection unit 1113 shoots the partial shooting camera 13 at a low bit rate when the train 2B passes the shooting position of the entire image in which the infrastructure equipment 4 to be inspected is not detected. When the train 2B passes the shooting position of the whole image detected by the infrastructure equipment 4 to be inspected, the partial shooting camera 13 is instructed to shoot at a high bit rate.

(3) In the area P of the search screen, when displaying the recognized whole image of the infrastructure equipment 4 to be inspected, marking or the like is added so that the inspector can easily recognize the recognized image of the infrastructure equipment 4. And highlight it. In this case, when the object detection unit 1113 detects the infrastructure equipment 4 to be inspected from the whole image, the information indicating the range of the detected image of the infrastructure equipment 4 is stored in the image DB, and the whole image is displayed on the search screen. When displaying, the image DB is referred to, and for example, a line surrounding the detected image of the infrastructure equipment 4 is superimposed on the entire image.
