A spectral camera control device, being installed, along with a spectral camera provided with a liquid crystal tunable filter, in an aircraft capable of stationary flight. The spectral camera control device causes the spectral camera to capture a spectral image in a snapshot mode each time a transmission wavelength of the liquid crystal tunable filter is switched while the aircraft is in stationary flight, and the spectral camera control device causes a plurality of spectral images to be captured in succession at a same transmission wavelength when an SN ratio of the captured spectral image is less than a predetermined threshold.
