A running information recording device for heavy construction equipment, comprising:

a plurality of cameras installed in a unit of heavy construction equipment to gather image data about the area around the unit of heavy construction equipment;
an operating apparatus configured to output user input data corresponding to a user's operation for driving the unit of heavy construction equipment;
an image processor configured to generate a synthetic moving image in which the image data about the area around the unit of heavy construction equipment and operation information of the operating apparatus are synthesized with each other;
and
a memory configured to store the synthetic moving image,
wherein the image processor is configured to acquire the user input data input from the operating apparatus by a user, convert the operating apparatus outputting the user input data into a visual-type image, and synthesize the image with the image data about the area around the unit of heavy construction equipment while changing the image to correspond to a change in an operational amount of the operating apparatus by the user's operation to generate the synthetic moving image.
