Abstract: In order to freely select, locate and display an image from a remote place on a monitor to facilitate observer's use, disclosed are apparatus and methods arranged to perform operation of drag and drop of a symbol to a specific position on a map showing the symbol indicating information of the position where an image generator is set, thereby establishing logical network connection with a video transmission terminal to which the image generator is connected, to display a video in an arbitrary display area, to perform the drag and drop operation of the video displayed in the video display area to another video display area, thereby changing a video display position, and to perform the drag and drop operation thereof to a display stop symbol, thereby disconnecting the logical network connection to stop the video display of the video camera.

Abstract: In an apparatus capable of communication with plural image transmitting terminals, improved operability is provided in selectively receiving and displaying images from the active terminals among plural image transmitting terminals. For this purpose, there is provided instruction means for entering an instruction for grouping the active terminals among the plural image transmitting terminals, generation means for grouping the active image transmitting terminals according to the instruction from the instruction means and generating a symbol corresponding to such group, and output means adapted, in response to an access to the symbol, to provide a monitor with images consisting of image data received from the active image transmitting terminals.
