(Operation management method)
Next, an operation management method executed by the operation management server 10 of the operation management system 1 described above will be described. 7 and 8 are flowcharts for explaining the operation management method according to the embodiment of the present invention. In the operation management method according to the present embodiment, a case where the work vehicle 40 is used as a dust collecting vehicle and a predetermined work is used as a garbage collecting work will be described as an example. In the following description, information is transmitted and received via the network 2, but a description of each point will be omitted.

(Pre-processing before starting work)
First, the work start pre-processing in the operation management method will be described. As shown in FIG. 7, first, in step ST1, the operation management control unit 12 of the operation management server 10 acquires various information from the data server 20 to the previous day through the communication unit 11, and the operation management database of the storage unit 13. Store in 13a. The various information up to the previous day is, for example, vehicle information, operation information, waste information, traffic information including traffic jam information, and weather information stored in the data server 20 from the predetermined day to the previous day. Is.

Next, in step ST2, the operation management control unit 12 creates a temporary operation route. Specifically, for example, the operation management control unit 12 reads various information about the specific work vehicle 40 up to the previous day from the operation management database 13a, and the work vehicle such as the presence / absence of a failure, the inspection state of the vehicle, the amount of refueling, and the SOC. The state of 40 is acquired, and it is determined whether or not the work vehicle 40 can travel. Further, the operation management control unit 12 creates a temporary operation route for each work vehicle 40 based on the waste load amount information (waste load amount information) of the previous day included in the waste information. For example, in creating a temporary operation route by the operation management control unit 12, the load capacity and volume of waste are different from the past results two days before the previous day, the average tendency, the tendency for each day of the week, and the season. It may be created in anticipation of each tendency. In addition, the waste load capacity information may be information for each operation route or information for each waste collection point. The created temporary operation route information is stored in the operation management database 13a of the storage unit 13. Hereinafter, the information stored in the operation management database 13a is sequentially transmitted to the data server 20, stored in any of the corresponding databases 24a to 24g, and synchronized, but the description of each time will be omitted.

Next, in step ST3, the operation management control unit 12 adds various information for the day and updates various information stored in the operation management database 13a. Specifically, in the operation management server 10, the operation management control unit 12 stores various information such as information on the work contents for the current day input using the input unit 15 and the like in the operation management database 13a. The work content information includes, for example, information on workers and drivers, includes calculated workable workers (person in charge information) and information on the number of workers (number of people information), and obtains vacations and the like. It may contain information about the worker who is doing it. Further, the information on the work content includes information on the weather such as the weather forecast and the temperature, and traffic information such as the traffic jam forecast.

Next, in step ST4, the operation management control unit 12 creates an operation route based on the updated various information and the created temporary operation route. The created operation route information is stored in the operation management database 13a of the storage unit 13. The operation route information includes information on the person in charge and information on the presence or absence of refueling. Next, in step ST5, the operation management control unit 12 transmits the operation route information and the person in charge information to the work vehicle 40 through the communication unit 11. With the above, the work pre-processing is completed.

(Garbage collection work processing)
When the work start pre-processing is executed as described above, the garbage collection work process is started. In the following description, communication between the operation management server 10 and the specific work vehicle 40 will be described as an example. That is, as shown in FIG. 8, the electronic control unit 45 of the work vehicle 40 in step ST11 of the work vehicle 40 and the person in charge based on the person in charge information and the operation route information received from the operation management server 10 in step ST5. Perform confirmation processing. Specifically, for example, the electronic control unit 45 confirms whether or not the vehicle information and the person in charge information included in the received operation route information match the received work vehicle 40 and the person in charge boarding the work vehicle 40. Do. Here, as a method of confirming the person in charge, for example, using an imaging device that is a part of the sensor group 42 of the work vehicle 40, the person in charge can be collated with the person in charge information by a conventionally known face recognition process. When the actual work vehicle 40 and the person in charge match the work vehicle 40 and the person in charge information included in the operation route information, the electronic control unit 45 transfers the vehicle information and the person in charge information to the operation management server 10 through the communication unit 41. Send to. When various information is transmitted from the work vehicle 40, the vehicle identification information is also transmitted, but the description of each information will be omitted. Further, when the information of the work vehicle 40 included in the operation route information does not match with the work vehicle 40, or when the person in charge information and the person in charge of boarding do not match, the electronic control unit 45 is a drive unit of the work vehicle 40. It may be controlled so that 44 is not driven.

Next, in step ST12, the operation management server 10 transmits a business start instruction signal to the work vehicle 40. In step ST13, the electronic control unit 45 of the work vehicle 40 that has received the business start instruction signal operates the sensor group 42, the drive unit 44 including the engine, and the GPS unit 48. The work vehicle 40 transmits the position information, the person in charge information, and the sensor information to the operation management server 10. Specifically, for example, when the engine of the drive unit 44 is driven and the position information acquired by the GPS unit 48 and included in the vehicle information matches the position information registered in advance, the position information and the remaining fuel amount at the start of business are obtained. Information (energy remaining amount information), vehicle information such as travel meter instruction number information (travel meter instruction number information), and various information such as person in charge information are transmitted from the work vehicle 40 to the operation management server 10. , Stored in the storage unit 13. The fuel remaining amount information may be transmitted to the operation management server 10 in advance. After that, the work vehicle 40 starts traveling to a predetermined destination according to the operation route stored in the operation information database 46a. Further, in step ST14, the operation management control unit 12 stores the received vehicle information, the person in charge information, and the sensor information in the operation management database 13a of the storage unit 13.

After the work vehicle 40 starts traveling according to the operation route, in step ST15, the electronic control unit 45 of the work vehicle 40 periodically transmits the vehicle information including the position information and the sensor information to the operation management server 10. The operation management server 10 that has received the vehicle information and the sensor information stores the received vehicle information and the sensor information in the operation management database 13a in association with the vehicle identification information.

Next, in step ST16, the operation management control unit 12 reads the stored vehicle information and sensor information from the operation management database 13a, and periodically collates with the operation route information. Specifically, the operation management control unit 12 confirms the current position of the work vehicle 40 based on the received position information. Here, whether the road on which the work vehicle 40 is traveling is an expressway or a general road is automatically classified based on the position information, the speed information, or the acceleration information included in the vehicle information. You can do it. In addition, the usage fee when traveling on a highway may be automatically settled through an in-vehicle device (not shown) in which an ETC card is inserted.

Further, it may be necessary to replenish energy during traveling, such as refueling gasoline or charging a charger. The start time of energy replenishment is a time when the position information of the work vehicle 40 substantially coincides with the position of the energy replenishment facility registered in advance with the engine of the drive unit 44 stopped. At this point, the fuel remaining amount before replenishment, the SOC, and the number of travel meter instructions as the pre-replenishment energy remaining amount information are transmitted from the work vehicle 40 to the operation management server 10 and stored. On the contrary, the time when the engine of the drive unit 44 shifts from the stopped state to the driven state is defined as the end time of energy supply. At this point, the remaining amount of fuel after replenishment and the SOC as the remaining amount of energy after replenishment are transmitted and stored from the work vehicle 40 to the operation management server 10 together with the position information of the work vehicle 40. As a result, the operation management control unit 12 of the operation management server 10 can calculate the amount of replenished energy from the remaining amount of energy after replenishment and the remaining amount of energy before replenishment. Here, the energy is replenished in principle along the operation route stored in the operation management database 13a, but may be appropriately performed based on the judgment of the person in charge or the like. Further, the fuel consumption of the work vehicle 40 can be managed by transmitting the remaining amount of fuel before and after replenishment and the number indicated by the traveling meter from the work vehicle 40 to the operation management server 10.

In step ST17, when the work vehicle 40 arrives at a predetermined destination, specifically, for example, a predetermined garbage collection point based on the traveling along the operation route, the electronic control unit 45 sends a collection point arrival signal. It is transmitted to the operation management server 10. The electronic control unit 45 transmits the location information to the operation management server 10 together with the arrival signal at the collection point. The operation management server 10 stores the received position information in the operation management database 13a in combination with the time information at the time of reception.

After that, the processing of the work vehicle 40 shifts to step ST18, and the work of collecting dust (garbage collection work) is started. In the present embodiment, the start of the garbage collection work is determined based on the switching of the PTO. For example, when the work vehicle 40 employs an automatic transmission (AT), the work vehicle 40 arrives at the garbage collection point, the shift lever is put into a predetermined shift stage such as parking from the drive, and the work unit 43 When the PTO in the above is switched from the off state to the on state and shifts to the operating state, the electronic control unit 45 transmits an arrival signal. Further, when the work vehicle 40 employs a manual transmission (MT), when the shift lever is put into neutral and the PTO in the work unit 43 is switched from off to on in the stopped state, the electronic control unit 45 Sends an arrival signal. In either case, the electronic control unit 45 transmits the vehicle information including the position information to the operation management server 10 together with the transmission of the arrival signal. In step ST19, the operation management control unit 12 stores the received position information in the operation management database 13a in association with the time information at the time of reception.

After that, the process proceeds to step ST20, and each time the shift lever of the work vehicle 40 is in the parking lot and it is recognized that the waste has been thrown in, the electronic control unit 45 sends a waste collection signal to the operation management server 10. Send. Here, the input of waste can be recognized by imaging the imaging unit 42a of the sensor group 42 installed in the waste input unit provided in the working unit 43. Further, the volume amount can be measured by the threshold value of the current value of the rotary disk drive motor (not shown). The electronic control unit 45 transmits the position information and the waste information including at least one information of the load capacity information, the volume amount information, and the number of garbage bags to the operation management server 10 together with the waste collection signal. In step ST21, the operation management control unit 12 stores and updates the vehicle information and the waste information in the operation management database 13a in association with the time information at the time of reception. In the operation management server 10, information on the load capacity, the volume amount, and the number of garbage bags, which are waste information, is updated until the garbage collection work at the predetermined garbage collection site is completed.

Next, in step ST22, when the garbage collection work at the predetermined garbage collection point is completed, the electronic control unit 45 of the work vehicle 40 transmits the work completion signal to the operation management server 10. In the present embodiment, the end of the waste collection work is determined based on the switching of the shift lever. That is, when the shift lever of the work vehicle 40 is switched to the shift stage for shifting from parking to a predetermined running state such as driving, the electronic control unit 45 transmits a work end signal to the operation management server 10. The work end signal may be transmitted to the operation management server 10 when the PTO is switched from on to off. The electronic control unit 45 transmits the position information, the load capacity information, the volume amount information, and the waste information such as the number of garbage bags to the operation management server 10 together with the work completion signal. In the operation management server 10, at the end of the garbage collection work at the predetermined garbage collection site, the waste information is updated in association with the time information at that time. An image pickup device is installed at the garbage collection point to image the garbage collection work separately from the image pickup device of the work vehicle 40 or in combination with the image pickup device of the work vehicle 40, and the electronic control unit 45 or operation management. The control unit 12 may determine the start and end of the waste collection work.

As a determination method for transmitting the above-mentioned waste collection signal and work end signal to the operation management server 10, various methods other than PTO switching and shift lever shift change can be adopted. That is, first, a method of detecting the start and end by image recognition processing can be adopted. In this method, after the work vehicle 40 arrives at the garbage collection point, the shift lever is put into the parking lot from the drive, and the state of the garbage being thrown in is imaged by an imaging device such as a camera installed in the garbage throwing section. At that time, the electronic control unit 45 may transmit the waste collection signal to the operation management server 10. In this case, the position information at that time is associated with the time information and stored in the operation management database 13a of the operation management server 10. On the other hand, at the end of the dust collection work, the electronic control unit 45 may transmit the work end signal when the dust is not thrown in for a certain period of time and the shift lever is put into the drive from the parking. In this case, the position information at that time and the waste information such as the load capacity, the volume amount, and the number of garbage bags are stored in the operation management database 13a in association with the time information. Secondly, based on the relationship between the position information of the work vehicle 40 and the pre-registered points stored in the operation information database 46a, waste is generated when the work vehicle 40 arrives at the registered predetermined garbage collection point. The collection signal may be transmitted. In this case, the position information at that time is associated with the time information and stored in the operation management database 13a of the operation management server 10. On the other hand, at the end of the garbage collection work, the work end signal may be transmitted when the distance from the registered point is a predetermined distance. In this case, the position information at that time and the waste information such as the load capacity, the volume amount, and the number of garbage bags are stored in the operation management database 13a in association with the time information. A vehicle recognition sensor (not shown) is provided at the garbage collection point, and when the vehicle recognition sensor recognizes that the work vehicle 40 has moved by a predetermined distance or more, the vehicle recognition sensor sends a departure signal to the operation management server 10. You may send it.

After that, the process proceeds to step ST24, and the work vehicle 40 starts moving to the next destination, the garbage collection point. Specifically, for example, when the shift lever of the work vehicle 40 switches from parking to drive and travels a predetermined distance from the position of the pre-registered garbage collection point, the work vehicle 40 transmits a departure signal to the operation management server 10. To do. When the operation management control unit 12 of the operation management server 10 receives the departure signal, it determines that the work vehicle 40 has started traveling toward the next destination. The electronic control unit 45 of the work vehicle 40 transmits vehicle information to the operation management server 10 together with the departure signal. After that, in step ST25, the operation management server 10 associates the received vehicle information with the time information at the time of reception, stores it in the operation management database 13a, and updates it.

After that, in step ST26, the operation management control unit 12 determines whether or not the garbage collection point of the received position information is the last garbage collection point for performing the garbage collection work. When the operation management control unit 12 determines that it is not the last garbage collection point for performing the garbage collection work (step ST26: No), the process returns to step ST17 until the garbage collection work at the last garbage collection point is completed. , Steps ST17 to ST25 are repeatedly executed. On the other hand, when the operation management control unit 12 determines that it is the last garbage collection point for performing the garbage collection work (step ST26: Yes), the operation management process when the work vehicle 40 operates a plurality of garbage collection points is performed. finish. After that, the work vehicle 40 starts traveling toward another predetermined destination, for example, a cleaning factory, according to the operation route information read from the operation information database 46a.

(Waste collection and post-treatment)
Next, a waste collection post-treatment and a daily report preparation method, which are a part of the operation management method according to the embodiment of the present invention, will be described. FIG. 9 is a flowchart for explaining an operation management method and a daily report creation method according to the present embodiment.

After the waste collection work is completed, that is, after the execution of the above-mentioned step ST26, as shown in FIG. 9, the electronic control unit 45 of the work vehicle 40 periodically sends the vehicle information including the position information to the operation management server 10 in the step ST31. Send to. The operation management control unit 12 of the operation management server 10 stores the received vehicle information in the operation management database 13a and updates the vehicle information of the work vehicle 40 (step ST32).

After that, in step ST33, the work vehicle 40 arrives at another destination, for example, the cleaning factory 34 managed by the cleaning factory server 30. The electronic control unit 45 of the work vehicle 40 transmits an arrival signal to the operation management server 10. In the operation management server 10, the operation management control unit 12 operates by associating the time information at the time when the arrival signal transmitted from the work vehicle 40 is received with the arrival information when the work vehicle 40 arrives at the cleaning factory 34. Store in the management database 13a (step ST34).

When the waste loaded on the work vehicle 40 is brought into the incineration plant 34, the waste is unloaded, that is, carried out. First, when the work vehicle 40 arrives at the incineration plant 40, the loading amount of the waste loaded on the work vehicle 40 is measured again by the measuring unit 35 installed in the incineration plant 34 in step ST35 before carrying out. The information on the load capacity of the weighed waste (waste load capacity information) is transmitted to the operation management server 10 by the cleaning management control unit 32 of the cleaning factory server 30. In step ST36, the operation management control unit 12 of the operation management server 10 that has received the waste load amount information stores the received waste load amount information in the operation management database 13a and stores it. Thereby, the waste load amount information of the work vehicle 40 can be corrected. The weight of the work vehicle 40 may be measured when the unloading work described later is completed and the waste loaded on the work vehicle 40 is exhausted. Further, the cleaning factory 34 may check the remaining fuel amount of the work vehicle 40.

Next, the process proceeds to step ST37, and the work vehicle 40 starts carrying out the waste. Specifically, in the work vehicle 40, the worker first turns on a switch for shifting the mounting device provided in the work unit 43, such as raising a body dump truck, to an operating state. At this point, the electronic control unit 45 recognizes that the unloading of the waste has started, and transmits the unloading start signal to the operation management server 10. In step ST38, in the operation management server 10, the time information at the time when the operation management control unit 12 receives the carry-out start signal transmitted from the work vehicle 40 and the contents of the contents that the work vehicle 40 has started carry-out. It is stored in the operation management database 13a in association with the carry-out start information.

After that, the process proceeds to step ST39, and the work vehicle 40 finishes carrying out the waste. Specifically, in the work vehicle 40, the worker turns off the switch for operating the erection device provided in the work unit 43, or performs an operation equivalent to turning off the switch. At this point, the electronic control unit 45 recognizes that the unloading of the waste has been completed, and transmits the unloading end signal to the operation management server 10. In step ST40, in the operation management server 10, the time information at the time when the operation management control unit 12 receives the carry-out end signal transmitted from the work vehicle 40 and the contents of the contents that the work vehicle 40 has finished carry-out. It is stored in the operation management database 13a in association with the carry-out end information. After that, the operation management control unit 12 transmits a carry-out completion confirmation signal to the work vehicle 40.

The work vehicle 40 that has received the carry-out end confirmation signal proceeds to step ST41 and starts traveling toward the designated location according to the operation route information read from the operation information database 46a. The electronic control unit 45 of the work vehicle 40 sends a departure signal and vehicle information including position information to an operation management server when the speed measured by the sensor group 42 becomes equal to or higher than a predetermined speed while the drive unit 44 is driven. Send to 10. Next, in step ST42, the operation management control unit 12 of the operation management server 10 travels toward the designated place and the time information at the time when the departure signal transmitted from the work vehicle 40 is received. Is stored in the operation management database 13a in association with the travel start information of the content that started.

Next, the process proceeds to step ST43, and the electronic control unit 45 periodically transmits vehicle information including position information to the operation management server 10 until the work vehicle 40 arrives at the designated place. At the same time, in step ST44, the operation management control unit 12 stores the received vehicle information in the operation management database 13a and updates the vehicle information of the work vehicle 40. The operation management control unit 12 determines whether or not the work vehicle 40 has arrived at the designated place based on the operation route information and the received position information. When the operation management control unit 12 determines that the work vehicle 40 has arrived at the designated place, the operation management control unit 12 transmits an arrival confirmation signal to the operation management server 10.

When the work vehicle 40 arrives at the designated place in step ST45, the electronic control unit 45 turns off the sensor group 42, the drive unit 44, and the GPS unit 48 of the work vehicle 40. At the same time, the electronic control unit 45 transmits the vehicle information including the position information and the sensor information including the engine off information, the remaining fuel amount, and the number of travel meter indications to the operation management server 10. In the operation management server 10, the operation management control unit 12 stores the vehicle information and the sensor information transmitted from the work vehicle 40 and the time information at the time when these information are received in the operation management database 13a in association with each other. .. Further, in step ST46, the operation management control unit 12 collates the received position information with the operation route information of the work vehicle 40, the designated place registered in advance and the received position information substantially match, and the sensor information. When the engine off information is included in, it is determined that the work using the work vehicle 40 has been completed. The operation management control unit 12 stores the time when it is determined that the business is completed in the operation management database 13a as the time information when the business is completed. The operation management control unit 12 transmits a business end confirmation signal to the work vehicle 40.

(How to create a daily report)
In step ST47, the operation management control unit 12 of the operation management server 10 as a daily report creation device stores time information and weather information within a predetermined period, specifically, for example, one day of the day, stored in the operation management database 13a. , Traffic information, vehicle information, sensor information, operation information, collection point information, waste information, and person in charge information. In addition, various information synchronized with the operation management database 13a may be acquired from the storage unit 24 of the data server 20 via the network 2.

In the operation management server 10, the operation management control unit 12 creates a daily work report by appropriately applying various read information to a predetermined position in a preset display format. FIG. 10 is a diagram showing an example of a daily report created by the daily report creating method according to the present embodiment. As shown in FIG. 10, for example, the operation management server 10 receives various information stored in the operation management database 13a, and the operation management control unit 12 reads the information, applies the information to a predetermined position, and displays the information. As a result, the daily work report is output. The display format of the daily work report is not limited to the example shown in FIG. 10, and the display format can be various desired formats.

Conventionally, a worker engaged in a work using a work vehicle 40 such as a dust collection needs to prepare and submit a daily work report after the work is completed or during the work. Creating a daily work report was a burden on the worker because it was handwritten by the worker or manually input to the mobile terminal. In addition, the operator had to manually input the remaining amount of fuel such as gasoline, the amount of refueling, and the toll of the toll road. Further, the working time of the worker and the mileage between the general road and the highway are also measured by the worker manually turning on / off a predetermined changeover switch. Further, the load capacity, volume amount, position information, etc., which are necessary information for creating the daily work report of garbage collection, are manually input by the worker based on the memory and record of the worker. In this way, the work of creating a daily work report and the work of creating an operation route after the work is a heavy burden on the worker, and considering the aging of the worker and the labor shortage, a more efficient daily report creation method. And business efficiency was required.

On the other hand, in one embodiment described above, all of this information is transmitted from the work vehicle 40 to the operation management server 10 and stored in the operation management database 13a and the data server 20. Therefore, the operation management control unit 12 can output the necessary information by reading the necessary information from the operation management database 13a and the data server 20, and generates a daily work report or the like without the operator inputting the information. can do. That is, by automating the information related to the work vehicle 40 in cooperation with the operation management server 10, a more accurate daily work report can be automatically created, so that the load on the worker is greatly reduced and the original work is reduced. In addition to being able to focus on work, more accurate management and operational efficiency can be achieved.

(recoding media)
In one of the above embodiments, a program capable of executing an operation management method and a daily report creation method can be recorded on a computer or other machine or device (hereinafter referred to as a computer or the like) on a recording medium readable by the computer or the like. it can. By having a computer or the like read and execute the program of the recording medium, the computer functions as the operation management server 10.

For example, the operation management server 10 and the data server 20 may be integrated as a cloud server, or the operation management server 10, the data server 20, and the cleaning factory server 30 may be configured as an integrated management server.

Further, in the above-described embodiment, the load capacity and volume amount of the waste loaded on the work vehicle 40 may reach a predetermined upper limit set by the work unit 43. In this case, first, the load amount information measured by the load amount measurement unit 42b of the sensor group 42 or the volume amount information measured by the volume amount measurement unit 42c is transmitted to the operation management server 10. The electronic control unit 45 of the work vehicle 40 is turned on when it is determined that the load amount measured by the load amount measurement unit 42b of the sensor group 42 or the volume amount measured by the volume amount measurement unit 42c exceeds a predetermined threshold value. A notification signal may be supplied to the output unit 47. In this case, the input / output unit 47 may display information on the content in which the load amount or the volume amount exceeds the threshold value, or may output an alert. As a result, the worker can recognize that the load capacity or the volume amount of the garbage has reached the upper limit in the work vehicle 40. When the electronic control unit 45 of the work vehicle 40 determines that the load amount or volume amount exceeds a predetermined threshold value, the communication unit 41 transmits information that the load amount or volume amount exceeds a predetermined threshold value. It may be transmitted to the operation management server 10.

Specifically, for example, a two-step notification that further notifies when the upper limit of 80% is reached, or a three-step notification that further notifies when the upper limit of 60% is reached and 90% is reached may be used. When the notification is performed in three stages, the operation management control unit 12 of the operation management server 10 determines, for example, when the notification reaches the second stage below the upper limit, based on the load capacity status of the other work vehicle 40 and the like. Instead of the predetermined work vehicle 40, the operation route information may be updated so as to change to another work vehicle 40 having a smaller load capacity. In this case, the operation management server 10 recreates the operation route of the predetermined work vehicle 40 and the operation route of the other work vehicle 40, and transmits the operation route to the predetermined work vehicle 40 and the other work vehicle 40. It should be noted that the same process can be executed even when the work vehicle 40 is out of order or the person in charge or the worker is in poor physical condition.

Further, in the above-described embodiment, other than the method of determining the end time of the work such as the garbage collection work by switching the shift lever, the work is not continued for a predetermined time and the work vehicle 40 is changed from the stopped state to the running state. In the case of migration, the operation management server 10 may acquire the vehicle information of the work vehicle 40 and store it in the storage unit 13 in association with the time information.

Further, in the event of a disaster or the like, it is possible to carry out the garbage collection work by running a plurality of work vehicles 40 in a platoon. In this case, the work vehicle 40 for collecting sludge and the like, the work vehicle 40 for collecting debris, and the work vehicle 40 for collecting ordinary garbage may be run in a platoon.

In the above-described embodiment, the position information is a part of the vehicle information, but the position information and the vehicle information can be different information.

In the above-described embodiment, the work vehicle 40 is a garbage truck, and each point in the operation route information is a garbage truck and an incineration plant 34, but the present invention is not necessarily limited to these. For example, the work vehicle 40 may be a truck vehicle for transportation, a concrete mixer vehicle, a route bus, or the like, and each point in the operation route information may be a carry-in / carry-out point, a bus stop, or the like.
