The predetermined timing may be, for example, the timing at which it is determined that the new collection request information satisfies the collection condition, or a predetermined cycle (eg, 5 minutes, 30 minutes, 1 hour, 1 day, etc.). It may be the timing of arrival. However, in consideration of allocating collection resources to all users on an equal basis, allocation at short time intervals is not preferable, and may be at intervals longer than half a day or one day, for example.

First, the collection resource allocation unit 232 reads collection request information to be determined from the collection request information storage unit 221 (step S301). The determination target may be, for example, all of the collection request information that has not been determined at that time. In this case, the determination may be made in chronological order from the earliest recorded timing.

The collection resource allocation unit 232 determines the collection resource to be dispatched to the position indicated by each collection request information based on the collection resource information stored in the collection resource information storage unit 222 (step S302). For example, the collection resource allocation unit 232 divides the area to be collected into a plurality of predetermined areas, calculates the collection score for each area based on the size and amount of the item to be collected in each area, and calculates the collection score for each area. Collection resources may be allocated based on scores. In this case, a collection score corresponding to the size and quantity may be determined in advance for each article. Note that the specific contents of the allocation process are not limited to those described above, and allocation may be performed by any process. The collected resource allocation unit 232 records information (allocation information) indicating the result of allocation in the allocation information storage unit 223 (step S303). The collection resource allocation unit 232 transmits the allocation information to the collection management device 40 (step S304).

In that case, the allocation information may simply be displayed. Further, when the allocation information transmitted from the allocation device 20 includes a specific result of allocation processing, the allocation information is transmitted not to the collection management device 40 but to the collection terminal device 50 or the worker terminal device 60 in the first place. may be In that case, the address information as the transmission destination of the collection terminal device 50 and the worker terminal device 60 may be recorded in the collection resource information storage unit 222 .

FIG. 8 is a diagram showing a specific example of persons involved in the collection support system 100. As shown in FIG. For example, the collection support system 100 may be constructed by a municipality 91, residents 92, an insurance company 93, and a service provider company 94. In this case, the municipality 91 provides a waste collection service by the collection support system 100 to residents 92 belonging to the municipality by making an insurance contract with an insurance company 93 . Insurance company 93 concludes an insurance contract with local government 91 . In this insurance contract, for example, a municipality pays an insurance premium to an insurance company 93, and the insurance company 93 provides a waste collection service to residents 92 of the municipality 91 through a service provider company 94. is.

The insurance company 93 concludes a business consignment contract with the service provider 94 in order to realize the collection service. In this business consignment contract, the insurance company 93 pays the service provider 94 a service consignment fee, and the service provider 94 provides the residents 92 with the collection service using the collection support system 100 . In the example shown in FIG. 8, residents 92 do not need to pay any fees to service provider 94 when requesting waste collection. This is because the costs are paid from the municipality 92 to the insurance company 93 and from the insurance company 93 to the service provider company 94 .

The user terminal 10 is a mobile terminal device possessed by a resident 92 . For example, each resident 92 may use the mobile terminal device as the user terminal 10 by installing a predetermined application on the mobile terminal device. Allocation device 20 may be operated by insurance company 93 or may be operated by service provider company 94 . The collection management device 40 may be operated by the service provider 94 or by a company that concludes a contract with the service provider 94 and actually dispatches collection vehicles and work vehicles to the site. In FIG. 8, a plurality of service providing companies 94 may exist.

With the collection support system 100 configured in this way, it becomes possible to collect the waste more efficiently. Specifically, it is as follows. A disaster-stricken user can easily input information by operating the user terminal 10 when requesting recovery of items to be recovered. Therefore, it is possible to reduce the work that the user has to do when requesting collection of the collection target article. In addition, since the information transmitted by the user terminal 10 includes the location of the user, the user does not need to explain the location in the collection request. In particular, in a disaster-affected state, there is a possibility that road marks that normally exist may be lost, and it may not be possible to correctly convey the address simply by conveying it. Even in such a case, if the latitude and longitude are notified as the position information, it becomes possible for the collection vehicle and the work vehicle to more accurately grasp the position to be collected.
