An example of the operation of the work management system 1 realized by executing the work management program by the work management device 5 in one embodiment will be described below.

When the work management device 5 according to one embodiment is activated, the arithmetic device 51 of the work management device 5 executes the work management program and the work management method starts. When the work management method according to one embodiment starts, step S1 is executed.

In step S1, the input unit 511 of the arithmetic device 51 of the work management device 5 prepares region information. The area information is represented by associating operation information, work area information, and work type information.

Operation information is explained. The operation information includes positioning information obtained by measuring a plurality of positions passed by the work machine while working in the field 9, and machine attribute information representing machine attributes of the work machine. The operation information may be transmitted from the vehicle-mounted terminal 3 mounted on the work vehicle 2 and received by the work management device 5 .

A machine attribute is an attribute for classifying a work machine according to the work performed by the work machine. Machine attributes include, for example, tractors, transplanters, pesticide applicators, harvesters, and the like. If it is known that a tractor will only perform a specific task, for example, if a tractor is dedicated to transplanting or spraying agricultural chemicals, the tractor will may be used as a transplanter or a pesticide sprayer. Information representing machine attributes so that the work management device 5 can handle them is called machine attribute information.

Work types and work type information will be described. The type of work is the type of work performed to grow crops. The types of work include, for example, subsoil breaking, plowing, leveling, transplanting, additional fertilizing, intertillage weeding, pest control, harvesting, and the like. Information representing work types so that the work management apparatus 5 can handle them is called work type information. The work type information may be obtained by estimation by the calculation unit 512 of the arithmetic device 51 of the work management device 5 based on the machine attribute information.

A work area and work area information will be described. An area of the field 9 in which the work machine has worked is called a work area. Information representing a work area so that the work management apparatus 5 can handle it is called work area information. The work area information may be acquired by the calculation unit 512 of the calculation device 51 of the work management device 5 estimating the work width based on the positioning information and the work width. Here, the work width represents the length in the width direction of the range in which the work is performed on the field 9 while the work machine moves. The work area information also includes the date and time when the work was performed, the machine attribute information of the machine, and the work type of the work performed.

After step S1, step S2 is executed. In step S2, the output section 515 of the arithmetic device 51 of the work management device 5 and the output section 613 of the arithmetic device 61 of the external terminal 6 display the work area 91 based on default conditions. More specifically, first, the output unit 515 of the work management device 5 outputs the work area information representing the work area corresponding to the default conditions and transmits it to the external terminal 6, and then the output of the external terminal 6 A unit 613 displays the work area 91 indicated by the received work area information. First, how the work area 91 is displayed will be described with reference to FIG. A method of extracting the displayed work area 91 based on default conditions will be described later.

As shown in FIG. 5, the touch panel device as the output device 642 outputs information representing a work area 91 extracted based on a predetermined condition among the plurality of fields 9 by displaying it on a map. At this time, the touch panel device displays the position and shape of the work area 91 on the map under the control of the output unit 613 realized by the arithmetic device 61 of the external terminal 6 executing the display operation program. The output unit 613 may further display the mark 92 indicating the representative position of the work area 91 by controlling the touch panel device.

After step S2, step S3 is executed. In step S3, the input unit 511 of the work management device 5 determines whether or not the extraction conditions for the work area 91 have been input by the user. More specifically, when the user operates the touch panel device as the input device 641 of the external terminal 6 to make an input for setting or changing the extraction conditions of the work area 91, the information representing this input is sent to the external terminal. 6 to the input unit 511 of the work management device 5 . The input unit 511 of the work management device 5 repeats step S3 while the information representing this input is not received (No) and waits, and when the information representing this input is received (Yes), the process proceeds to step S4. proceed.

An example of a method in which the user operates the touch panel device to input extraction conditions for the work area 91 will be described. The touch panel device as the output device 642 of the external terminal 6 may display condition setting windows 70 and 80 for inputting extraction conditions in addition to the work area 91 displayed on the map. The user operates the touch panel to appropriately operate input frames 71, 72, 73 and switches 81, 82, 83, 84, 85 provided in the condition setting windows 70, 80 to set extraction conditions and You can make changes, etc.

In the example of FIG. 5, the user extracts a work area 91 by inputting a desired character string, a desired period, and a desired work type into input frames 71, 72, and 73 included in the condition setting window 70. You can set conditions. By operating switches 81, 82, 83, 84, and 85 included in the condition setting window 80, the user can display or hide the registered field and display or hide the work area 91 and the mark 92. , show or hide work areas whose machine attribute is Harvester, show or hide work areas whose machine attribute is Truck, show or hide work areas whose machine attribute is Tractor, and machine attribute is The display or non-display of the work area, which is the transplanter, may be switched.

In step S4, the extraction unit 514 of the arithmetic device 51 of the work management device 5 extracts the work area 91 based on the extraction conditions input in step S3. Here, the extraction unit 514 refers to the area information, extracts work type information that satisfies the extraction conditions input in step S3, and extracts work area information associated with the extracted work type information as extraction area information. do. Here, if there is a one-to-one correspondence between the work type selected as the extraction condition and the machine attribute corresponding to the selected work type, the work area associated with the machine attribute information representing this machine attribute Information may be extracted as extraction region information.

After step S4, step S5 is executed. In step S5, the output unit 515 of the arithmetic device 51 of the work management device 5 and the output unit 613 of the arithmetic device 61 of the external terminal 6 display the work area 91 based on the extraction conditions. More specifically, first, the output unit 515 of the work management device 5 outputs the work area information representing the work area corresponding to the extraction condition and transmits it to the external terminal 6, and then the output unit 515 of the external terminal 6 613 displays the workspace 91 represented by the received workspace information.

An example of display of the work area 91 extracted based on the extraction conditions input in step S3 will be described with reference to FIG. In the example of FIG. 6, the work area 91 in which the machine attribute work machine whose switch 83 is in the ON state performed the work of the work type entered in the input frame 73 during the period entered in the input frame 72 is , are displayed together with the mark 92 . More specifically, during the period from May 1, 2021 to May 7, 2021, which is entered in the input frame 72, the work machine having the machine attribute of the harvester corresponding to the switch 83 is A work area 91 in which the work of the work type “harvesting” corresponding to 73 is performed is displayed together with a mark 92 . This display is obtained as a result of the user's input in the input frame 72, the input frame 73, and the switch 83 in step S3.

After step S5, the process may return to step S3 and wait until new extraction conditions are input.

As described above, in the processes of steps S3 to S5, the user is required to input appropriate extraction conditions in order to display the desired work area 91 . The more fields 9 managed by the user, the more complicated the input of extraction conditions may be. Therefore, in one embodiment, an attempt is made to estimate and automatically display the work area 91 desired by the user at the time of step S2.

Details of step S2 will be described with reference to FIG. When step S2 is executed after step S1 in FIG. 4, step S201 in FIG. 7 is executed first.

In step S201, the input unit 511 of the arithmetic device 51 of the work management device 5 prepares cultivation calendar information representing the cultivation calendar. The cultivation calendar information is stored in the cultivation calendar information storage unit 524 of the storage device 52 of the work management device 5, as shown in FIG. The cultivation calendar information may be read from the recording medium 520 or may be acquired from outside via the communication device 53 .

FIG. 8 is a table showing an example of the contents of a cultivation calendar according to one embodiment. A plurality of periods are arranged in order in the horizontal direction of the table in FIG. Here, "B" represents the beginning of each month, "M" represents the middle of each month, and "E" represents the end of each month. Also, in the vertical direction of the table in FIG. 8, work types and work names representing the work types are arranged. In the cell where the period and work type intersect, a check is entered when there is a plan to perform the work of that work type during that period, and conversely, no check is entered when there is no such plan. The work name is a name unique to the producer or production area, and may be the same name as the work type, or if it is linked to the work type, a different name from the work type is used. may be As an example, the work name "planting" may be used in correspondence with the work whose work type is "transplanting".

Note that the cultivation calendar may be entered or changed by the user. As an example, while the table shown in FIG. It is possible to add or remove checks in cells where the types intersect. In addition, the user can add or delete work type rows by operating the "ADD" button or the "DELETE" button. Furthermore, by operating the work type pull-down menu, the work type of the row can be changed.

After step S201, step S202 is executed. In step S202, the user logs in, and the input unit 511 of the arithmetic device 51 of the work management device 5 acquires the login time. This login may occur when the user activates the external terminal 6 and the external terminal 6 initiates communication with the work management device 5 .

After step S202, step S203 is executed. In step S203, the extraction unit 514 of the arithmetic device 51 of the work management device 5 reads out the content corresponding to the login time from the cultivation calendar. Here, the extraction unit 514 extracts, from the cultivation calendar information, the type of work scheduled during the period including the login time at which the user logged in. The extracted work type is called an extracted work type. In the example shown in FIG. 8, when the login time is included in early May 2021, the data of period 101 is read out of the cultivation calendar information.

After step S203, step S204 is executed. In step S204, the determination unit 513 of the arithmetic device 51 of the work management device 5 determines whether or not there is one work type corresponding to the content read out in step S104. If there is only one applicable work type (Yes), step S205 is executed after step S204. Conversely, if there is more than one applicable work type (No), step S207 is executed after step S204. In the example shown in FIG. 8, the type of work included in the read data for the period 101 is one type of "additional fertilization", so in this case, step S205 is executed after step S204.

In step S205, the extraction unit 514 of the arithmetic device 51 of the work management device 5 extracts a work area for performing the work type corresponding to the contents read out in step S203. More specifically, work area information representing a work area associated with the work type of interest is extracted. The extracted work area information is called extraction area information.

After step S205, step S206 is executed. In step S206, the output device 642 of the external terminal 6 displays the work area represented by the extraction area information extracted in step S205. More specifically, the output unit 515 of the work management device 5 controls the communication device 53 to transmit the extracted region information to the external terminal 6, and the output unit 613 of the arithmetic device 61 of the external terminal 6 controls the output device 642. to display the work area 91 represented by the extraction area information.

As an example, in step S206, the extracted work area 91 may be displayed as shown in FIG. FIG. 9 is a diagram showing an example of display according to one embodiment. At this time, a period including the login time may be displayed in the input frame 72 of the condition setting window 70 . Also, the extracted work type may be displayed in the input frame 73 of the condition setting window 70 .

After step S206, the process proceeds to step S3 in FIG.

In step S207, the calculation unit 512 of the arithmetic device 51 of the work management device 5 tallies the total number of work areas for each work type existing within a predetermined period. More specifically, the calculation unit 512 calculates the total number of pieces of extraction area information associated with each of the plurality of work types determined to be not one type in step S204. FIG. 10 is a table showing an example of contents of a cultivation calendar according to one embodiment. In the example of FIG. 10, the work types included in the read data for the period 102 are three types of "transplanting", "additional fertilization", and "intertillage weeding". A total number of area information is calculated.

After step S207, step S208 is executed. In step S208, the extraction unit 514 of the arithmetic device 51 of the work management device 5 extracts the work area of the work type with the largest total counted in step S207.

After step S208, step S209 is executed. In step S209, as in step S206, the output unit 613 of the external terminal 6 controls the output device 642 to display the registered farm field 9 and the work area extracted in step S208.

As an example, in step S209, the registered scattered fields 9 may be displayed as shown in FIG. 11A, and the extracted work areas may be displayed as shown in FIG. 11B. FIG. 11A is a diagram illustrating an example of a display according to one embodiment; FIG. 11B is an enlarged view of part 93 of FIG. 11A. At this time, the condition setting window 70 may be displayed in FIG. 11A together with the field 9, and the period including the login time may be displayed in the input frame 72 of the condition setting window 70. FIG. Also, all the extracted work types may be displayed in the input frame 73 of the condition setting window 70 . In the example of FIG. 11A, the input frame 73 displays the three types of "transplanting", "additional fertilization", and "intertillage weeding" read out in FIG. As an example, when a plurality of work types are extracted, the order in which these work types are displayed in the input frame 73 may be in descending order of the total number of work areas of the work type. In the example of FIG. 11A, "transplant", which has the largest total number of corresponding work areas, is displayed at the top of the input frame 73 and highlighted in bold.

In the example of FIG. 11B, agricultural fields 9A, 9B, 9C, 9D, 9E, and 9F are displayed in part 93 of FIG. 11A. In addition, the example of FIG. 11B indicates that the work area 9A1 for "transplant", which has the largest total number of corresponding work areas, exists inside the field 9A. Similarly, the example of FIG. 11B also shows that the “transplant” work areas 9D1 and 9D2 exist inside the field 9D. At this time, for the work areas 9B1 and 9B2 of "additional fertilization" displayed in the input frame 73 of FIG. 11A, it may be displayed that they exist inside the field 9B, or may not be displayed. However, when displaying, it is preferable to emphasize the "transplant" work areas 9A1, 9D1, and 9D2. Similarly, for the work area 9C1 for "intertillage weeding" displayed in the input frame 73 of FIG. When displaying, the work areas 9A1, 9D1, and 9D2 of "implantation" are emphasized and displayed. However, in any case, it is preferable to always display the frame lines representing the fields 9A, 9B, 9C, 9D, 9E, and 9F.

FIG. 11C shows FIG. 11B in another state. This state is a state transitioned by the user operating the external terminal 6 to select one of the work types displayed in the input frame 73 shown in FIG. 11A. The example of FIG. 11C shows a state in which "additional fertilization" is selected from among the work types displayed in the input frame 73 shown in FIG. 11A. At this time, "additional fertilization" is displayed in bold in the input frame 73, and FIG. 11C shows that the work areas 9B1 and 9B2 for "additional fertilization" exist inside the field 9B. At this time, the remaining work areas 9A1, 9D1, and 9D2 for "transplanting" and the work area 9C1 for "intertillage weeding" may or may not be displayed. The work areas 9B1 and 9B2 of "additional fertilizing" selected in 73 are highlighted and displayed. However, in any case, it is preferable to always display the frame lines representing the fields 9A, 9B, 9C, 9D, 9E, and 9F.

After step S209, the process proceeds to step S3 in FIG.

(Modification)
A modified example of the work management method according to the embodiment will be described with reference to FIG. The work management method according to this modification can be obtained by replacing step S4 shown in FIG. 4 with the flowchart shown in FIG. In this modification, when step S4 shown in FIG. 4 starts, step S401 shown in FIG. 12 starts.

In step S401, the determination unit 513 of the work management device 5 determines whether or not the extraction condition includes a period and does not include a work type and a machine attribute. If the determination result is true (TRUE), the process proceeds to step S402. Conversely, if the determination result is false (FALSE), the process proceeds to step S404.

In step S402, the calculation unit 512 of the work management device 5 counts the total number of work areas for each work type existing within the target period corresponding to the extraction condition. At this time, the work area of the work type with the largest total number is stored so as to be distinguishable from the work areas of other work types. As an example, in the cultivation calendar shown in FIG. 13, the period 103 from early April 2021 to late May 2021 is included in the extraction conditions, and the work types that exist in this period 103 are "transplant", " top-fertilizing” and “intertillage weeding”.

After step S402, step S403 is executed. In step S403, the extraction unit 514 of the work management device 5 extracts work areas of all work types existing within the target period corresponding to the extraction condition. As an example, in the example shown in FIG. 13, each work area of "transplantation", "additional fertilization" and "intertillage weeding" is extracted.

After step S403, the process proceeds to step S5 in FIG. In step S5, the registered scattered fields 9 are displayed as shown in FIG. 14A, and the work area extracted in step S403 is displayed as shown in FIG. 14B. FIG. 14A is a diagram illustrating an example of a display according to one embodiment; FIG. 14B is an enlarged view of part 93 of FIG. 14A. At this time, the work area of the work type with the largest total counted in step S402 is highlighted and displayed so as to be distinguishable from the work areas of other work types. As an example, in the display example shown in FIG. 14B, the work areas of “transplanting”, “additional fertilizing” and “intertillage weeding” extracted in step 403 are displayed. More specifically, the “transplant” work areas 9A1, 9D1, 9D2 exist inside the fields 9A, 9D, the “top-dressing” work areas 9B1, 9B2 exist inside the field 9B, This indicates that the work area 9C1 for "intertillage weeding" exists inside the field 9C. Furthermore, among these work areas, the "transplant" work areas 9A1, 9D1, and 9D2, which have the largest total number, are highlighted so as to be distinguished from the other work areas 9B1, 9B2, and 9C1. In the example of FIG. 14B , the highlighting is performed with a thick line, but the present disclosure is not limited to this example, and the highlighting may be performed with a different color, a different line type, or the like.

In the state of FIG. 14B, the display for identifying the work type corresponding to each work area may be omitted. On the other hand, as a result of the user's operation of selecting the display of the work area, the work type of the work area may be displayed in characters or the like. An example of display in such a state is shown in FIG. 14C. In the example of FIG. 14C, when the user selects the work area 9B1 or 9B2 of "additional fertilization" by a touch operation or the like on the touch panel, the characters of "additional fertilization" are displayed in these work areas 9B1 and 9B2. showing. At this time, the work areas 9A1, 9D1, and 9D2 for "transplanting" and the work area 9C1 for "intertillage weeding" that have been displayed until then may remain displayed or may not be displayed. In this case, it is preferable to highlight and display the selected "top dressing" work areas 9B1 and 9B2 so that they can be distinguished from each other.

Note that the input frame 73 may remain blank unless the user operates the input frame 73 when performing these processes. Conversely, the user may operate the input frame 73 to search for the work area of the designated work type. As a result, work areas that match the search conditions may be selectively displayed.

In step S404, the extraction unit 514 of the work management device 5 extracts the work area of the extracted work type. Here, the work areas of the extracted work types may be work areas of all work types that meet the extraction conditions.

After step S404, the process proceeds to step S5 in FIG. In step S5, all work areas extracted in step S404 are displayed.

As described above, according to one embodiment, the user operates the external terminal 6 to log in, and before the user sets the conditions for extracting the work area 91, the user is required to Information to be guessed and displayed automatically. As a result, information required by the user can be efficiently output. After that, by appropriately setting the extraction conditions by the user, it is also possible to output other information requested by the user.

Although the invention made by the inventor has been specifically described above based on the embodiment, it should be noted that the invention is not limited to the embodiment, and that various modifications can be made without departing from the gist of the invention. Not even. Moreover, each feature described in the embodiments can be freely combined within a technically consistent range.
