Wind information storage unit acquires and stores wind information indicating the windspeed and wind direction of wind that blows at a plurality of spots neighboring a facility targeted for examination. Wind predicting unit predicts the windspeed and wind direction at the facility targeted for examination, based on the wind information acquired by wind information storage unit. Flight instructing unit instructs, with regard to drone that flies around the facility and acquires examination data of the facility, flight that avoids colliding with the facility due to wind of the windspeed and wind direction predicted by wind predicting unit, before arrival of the wind. Flight instructing unit gives an instruction for collision avoidance in the case where a change in the windspeed predicted by wind predicting unit is greater than or equal to a threshold value.

A CubeSat compatible spectrometer including a slit having a first length and first width; a diffraction grating; and a two dimensional focal plane array electromagnetically coupled to the diffraction grating. The 2D focal plane array includes an array of pixels including a plurality of sets of pixels. Diffraction of electromagnetic radiation transmitted through the slit by the diffraction grating forms a plurality of beams, each of the beams comprising a different one of the bands of the wavelengths in the electromagnetic radiation, and each of the beams transmitted onto a different one of the sets of the pixels.
