To provide a novel and improved information processing device that can make more efficient an inspection performed by a flying body capable of imaging.SOLUTION: There is provided an information processing device which comprises: an imaging position information acquisition unit for acquiring imaging position information at a time when an inspection object is imaged, the information being acquired by a flying imaging device that flies over a flight area where the inspection object exists and images the inspection object on the basis of prescribed flight information; an image combining unit for generating a combined image obtained by connecting a plurality of picked-up images having been imaged by the flying imaging device to one another; a feature position calculation unit for calculating the position of a feature portion of the inspection object included in the combined image, on the basis of imaging position information on the picked-up image corresponding to a portion of a corner of the combined image, out of the picked-up images constituting the combined image; and a feature data generation unit for generating data relating to the feature of the inspection object including the position of the feature of the inspection object calculated by the feature position calculation unit.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 1 【課題】撮像を実施可能な飛行体による点検を効率化することが可能な、新規かつ改良された情報処理装置を提供する。【解決手段】所定の飛行情報に基づいて検査対象物が存在する飛行領域を飛行して該検査対象物を撮像する飛行撮像装置で取得された、前記検査対象物を撮像した時の撮像位置情報を取得する撮像位置情報取得部と、前記飛行撮像装置が撮影した複数の撮像画像を繋ぎあわせた合成画像を生成する画像合成部と、前記合成画像の基となる撮像画像の内、前記合成画像の隅の部分に対応する撮像画像の撮像位置情報に基づき、前記合成画像に含まれる前記検査対象物の特徴部分の位置を算出する特徴位置算出部と、前記特徴位置算出部により算出された前記検査対象物の特徴の位置を含む前記検査対象物の特徴に関するデータを生成する特徴データ生成部と、を備える、情報処理装置が提供される。【選択図】図１
