Imaging support device and imaging support method

An imaging support device that supports imaging of a structure performed using an imaging device, the imaging support device comprising:

• a drawing information-acquisition circuit that acquires drawing information of the structure;
• an imaging point specification circuit that specifies an imaging point of the structure on the basis of the drawing information;
• and
• an image quality information-acquisition circuit that acquires image quality information of a taken image;
• an imaging planning circuit that generates imaging plan information including at least one of imaging position information or imaging range information of the imaging device at each imaging of the structure on the basis of the specified imaging point and the image quality information;
• an actual imaging information-acquisition circuit that acquires actual imaging information including at least one of actual imaging position information or actual imaging range information of the imaging device at each imaging of the structure;
• and
• an imaging support information-generation circuit that combines the imaging plan information and the actual imaging information with the drawing information and allows a display device to display combined information.
