After making the determination, for example, it is also possible to perform a process of determining whether or not the "supervisor" is displayed in the image of the "specified other construction".

(Step S400)
As shown in FIGS. 1, 2, and 6, in step S400, the central processing unit 22 determines the construction scope of the "uninquired construction" (see "construction scope CR" in FIG. A process ("separation distance calculation process") for calculating the distance from the position (see "estimated burying line EL" in FIG. 7) is performed. This processing corresponds to a part of the "work item identification process" and the "work item identification step" described in the claims.

As described above, the calculation of such a separation distance is
