In the state where the event handle is not supported, the first image is captured from the timing before the first predetermined time before the event switch is operated, among the images captured by the imaging unit in response to the operation of the event switch. A file including an image captured during a second predetermined time longer than a predetermined time of 1, a position information at a timing when the imaging is performed, and time information is generated, and the file is transmitted to the server And
The server manages the position information and the image information as the inspection information.

Obtaining the position information of the inspection object by the GPS receiver of the inspection device;
Designating a point that needs repair in the inspection object by a laser pointer of the inspection device;
Photographing the location designated for repair specified by the laser pointer by the imaging unit of the inspection device;
Transmitting the inspection information obtained by the GPS receiving unit and the imaging unit from the inspection device to the server via a portable wireless line;
It is detected whether the inspection device is supported by an operation handle, and in the state supported by the operation handle, the imaging is performed based on an operation signal corresponding to an operation of a photographing switch provided in the operation handle. Image by
A timing before a first predetermined time before the event switch is operated among images captured by the imaging unit in response to an operation of the event switch of the inspection device in a state where the event switch is not supported by the operation handle. To generate a file including an image captured during a second predetermined time longer than the first predetermined time, the position information at the timing when the imaging was performed, and time information, An inspection method comprising the steps of: transmitting to a server.
