Abstract
It is desirable to provide an information processing apparatus, an information processing method, a program, and a monitoring system capable of monitoring a condition of a measured surface highly accurately and using the monitoring result effectively. To attain the aforementioned object, according to a mode of the present invention, an information processing apparatus includes an obtaining module and a generating module. The obtaining module obtains measuring data about a measured surface. The generating module generates covering material information about a covering material that covers the measured surface based on a feature of the obtained measuring data.
Claims20
