Technical Abstract

A construction management system includes: an object detecting unit mounted on a work machine and configured to detect an object in a construction site and output information on the object; a shape detecting unit configured to output shape information indicating a three-dimensional shape of the object by using the information on the object detected by the object detecting unit; an information attaching unit configured to attach, to the shape information, time information indicating a time when the object is detected; and a management device configured to generate current state information on the construction site on the basis of the shape information to which a latest piece of the time information is attached.

Patent Claims
5 claims

Legal claims defining the scope of protection, as filed with the USPTO.

1

1. A construction management system of a work machine with a swing body and a traveling body, comprising: a shape measuring system provided in the swing body; a storage unit configured to store a plurality of shape information obtained by the shape measuring system with the swing body swung; and a processing unit configured to generate a site shape information of a construction site including a construction object constructed by a different work machine other than the work machine, by combining the plurality of shape information.

2

2. The construction management system according to claim 1 , further comprising: a communication unit configured to transmit the site shape information to the different work machine.

3

3. A construction management system of a work machine with a swing body and a traveling body, comprising: an imaging device provided in the swing body; a storage unit configured to store a plurality of images captured by the imaging device with the swing body swung; and a processing unit configured to apply image processing by a stereo method to the plurality of images so as to generate a plurality of shape information; wherein the processing unit is further configured to generate a site shape information of a construction site including a construction object constructed by a different work machine other than the work machine, by combining the plurality of shape information.

4

4. A construction management method of a work machine with a swing body and a traveling body, comprising: obtaining a plurality of shape information, by the shape measuring system provided in the swing body with the swing body swung; and generating a site shape information of a construction site including a construction object constructed by a different work machine other than the work machine, by combining the plurality of shape information.

5

5. A construction management method of a work machine with a swing body and a traveling body, comprising: capturing a plurality of images by the imaging device provided in the swing body with the swing body swung; applying image processing by a stereo method to the plurality of images so as to generate a plurality of shape information; and generating a site shape information of a construction site including a construction object constructed by a different work machine other than the work machine, by combining the plurality of shape information.
