  • Publication number: 20220128725
    Abstract: A buried object scanning device 10 includes a capacitance sensor 13, a search image conversion processing unit 25, a memory unit 22, a display unit 12, an operation input unit 15, and a display control unit 30. The capacitance sensor 13 detects a buried object 51. The search image conversion processing unit 25 converts the detection result of the capacitance sensor 13 into a search image. The memory unit 22 stores search images and a grid layer including grid lines corresponding to a specific scale. The display unit 12 displays the search images and the grid layer. The display control unit 30 controls the display unit 12 so as to display the search image superimposed with the grid layer and to display the search image in a state of being movable relative to the grid layer, in response to input to the operation input unit 15.
