First Claim
1. A control device comprising:
- circuitry configured toacquire information related to an overview of a structure, the information related to the overview of the structure includes position information indicative of at least one set of latitude and longitude points of the structure;
generate flight information of a flying body being caused to fly over and under a periphery of the structure to image the structure on the basis of the acquired information; and
estimate the position information of the flying body based on satellite position information and an image captured by the flying body of a position estimate marker, a location of the position estimate marker being visible to the flying body when the structure blocks the flying body from directly receiving the satellite position information from a satellite.

Abstract
[Object] To provide a control device that can make more efficient an inspection performed by a flying body capable of performing imaging.
[Solution] Provided is a control device including an acquisition unit configured to acquire information related to an overview of a structure, and a flight information generating unit configured to generate flight information of a flying body being caused to fly over a periphery of the structure to image the structure on the basis of the information acquired by the acquisition unit. The control device generates information used to cause the flying body to image the structure, and thereby makes it possible to make more efficient the inspection performed by the flying body capable of performing imaging.
