To estimate the top surface of a measurement target on the basis of a data point group that corresponds to the top surface of the measurement target and is obtained using a laser scanner. A data processing unit: selects two data points from the data point group which is contained within the thickness in the vertical direction of a hoisting load region, and calculates the distance between the selected two data points; determines the two data points are located in the same plane and calculates the gravitational center for each point determined to be in the same plane when the distance between the two points is equal to or less than a threshold; searches for a nearby point which is a data point for which the distance from the gravitational centers is equal to or less than the threshold, determines the nearby point is also in the same plane when the nearby point is discovered, and repeatedly performs the process in order each time a nearby point is discovered; obtains multiple data points determined to be in the same plane; and estimates plane clusters representing the top surfaces of a hoisting load and an object on the basis of the multiple data points.
