Abstract:
The device includes a unit obtaining an object's point cloud position data, a unit obtaining the object's image data, a unit in which co-relationship between point cloud position data obtained in the point cloud position data obtaining unit through a primary viewpoint or image data obtained in the image data obtaining unit through the primary viewpoint and image data obtained in the image data obtaining unit through a secondary (different from the primary) viewpoint are identified, a unit forming a three-dimensional model by the data obtained in the point cloud position data obtaining unit, and a unit controlling displaying of the model formed in the model forming unit on a displaying device. The model forming unit forms a three-dimensional model having direction seen from the secondary viewpoint, depending on the co-relationship identified in the co-relationship identifying unit. Operators see the model seen from the secondary viewpoint as an image.
