To perform photographing control so as to lower movement cost and to reduce re-photographing.SOLUTION: A photographing control device 2 includes an object designation part 24 for designating a photographing object of a camera 11 mounted on a self-propelled inspection robot 1, a photographing evaluation part 31 for calculating a photographing evaluation value in the case of photographing the designated photographing object from a photographing place 4, a movement evaluation part 32 for calculating a movement evaluation value on the basis of a movement cost of a movement path for making the self-propelled inspection robot 1 to the photographing place 4, and a photographing command determination part 33 for determining the movement path to the photographing place 4 with reference to the photographing evaluation value and the movement evaluation value and outputting a photographing command including the determined movement path to the photographing place 4 to the self-propelled inspection robot 1.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 6 【課題】移動コストが低く、かつ、撮影の手戻りも少ないように撮影制御をすること。【解決手段】撮影制御装置２は、自走式点検ロボット１に搭載したカメラ１１の撮影対象を指定する対象指定部２４と、指定された撮影対象を撮影箇所４から撮影する場合の撮影評価値を計算する撮影評価部３１と、自走式点検ロボット１を撮影箇所４まで移動させる移動経路の移動コストをもとに、移動評価値を計算する移動評価部３２と、撮影評価値と移動評価値とを参照して撮影箇所４までの移動経路を決定するとともに、決定した撮影箇所４までの移動経路を含む撮影指令を自走式点検ロボット１に出力する撮影指令決定部３３とを有する。【選択図】 図６
