A system for operation and integrity management of a pipeline stores field data obtained from an operational system, and in-line data obtained from an in-line inspection vehicle and external data from a video camera on an external companion device. The system performs data processing on the in-line data and field data to generate input for risk modeling and performs risk modeling of the pipeline using the input to predict a risk of one of a plurality of failure mode states at a portion of the pipeline. The system may initiate risk monitoring for the portion of the pipeline by the operational system and the in-line inspection vehicle.

An object of the present invention is to provide a dispensing audit support apparatus and a dispensing audit support method with a high collation accuracy robustness. According to a dispensing audit support apparatus according to one aspect of the present invention, since a position, shape and size of a region of interest are set according to a position of a collation-target medicine in a captured image, and a position, shape and size of a master image are set according to the set region of interest, it is possible to avoid or reduce distortion of the medicine shape, blur, inclusion of an end part into the image, and the like due to the position and orientation of the collation-target medicine. Therefore, influence on collation accuracy is small, and it is possible to enhance the robustness of the collation accuracy.
