Abstract

A technique facilitates selecting and designating an arbitrary one of a plurality of aerial lines. The aerial line extraction system, includes: an area-of-interest cropping unit that crops a region where an aerial line is assumed to exist as an area of interest by setting a support of the aerial line as a reference from a three-dimensional point cloud data; an element segmenting unit that segments the area of interest into a plurality of subdivided areas, obtains a histogram by counting three-dimensional point clouds existing in each of the subdivided areas, and obtains a segmentation plane of the area of interest on the basis of the histogram; and an element display unit that segments the area of interest into a plurality of segmented areas by the segmentation plane and displays the three-dimensional point clouds included in each of the segmented areas in a distinguishable manner.
