Patent ID: 11189009

Abstract:
The present invention is directed to providing an image processing apparatus and an image processing method capable of easily obtaining a combined image and a developed image in a case where a construction formed of a plurality of planes is divisionally imaged. An image processing apparatus according to an aspect of the present invention includes an image acquisition unit that acquires a plurality of captured images obtained by respectively imaging different portions of a construction formed of a plurality of planes, a plane specifying unit that specifies common planes common to the plurality of captured images, an image conversion unit that performs projection conversion on images including the common planes among the plurality of captured images, to generate a plurality of converted images in which the common planes are aligned with each other, a combined image generation unit that generates a plane combined image in which the plurality of converted images are combined with each other on an identical plane, and a developed image generation unit that generates a developed image of the construction by connecting a plurality of the plane combined images to each other.
