System for power plant management and device for building 3d virtual model of power plant

A device for building a 3D virtual model of a power plant, comprising:

• a receiver to receive equipment data associated with power plant equipment in the power plant and layout data associated with a layout of the power plant;
• a memory to store the equipment data acquired;
• an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) route planning device to create UAV route planning data according to the layout data received, the UAV route planning data including a UAV route and photographing positions at which photographing needs to be performed;
• a UAV data acquisition device to acquire UAV data, the UAV data including power plant images photographed at the photographing positions along the UAV route by a UAV and position data associated with the photographing positions;
• and
• a model building device to build a 3D virtual model of the power plant according to the equipment data received and the UAV data acquired.
