An information collection system includes a sensor terminal group including first sensor terminals and second sensor terminals and an information collection terminal capable of wireless communication with the sensor terminals. The information collection terminal includes a transmission unit that transmits data requests to the sensor terminals and a receiving unit that executes processing of receiving measurement data from the first sensor terminals in a first period, executes processing of receiving reception requests from the second sensor terminals in a second period, and when the reception requests are given, executes processing of receiving measurement data from the second sensor terminals in a third period. The second sensor terminal includes a transmission unit that, when the data requests are given, and when the control unit determines to transmit the measurement data, transmits the reception requests in the second period and transmits the measurement data in the third period.
