Since an investigation apparatus is connected through a cable and is remotely operated, the cable may be caught by an obstacle, thereby limiting a movement range of the investigation apparatus. An investigation systemincludes an investigation apparatuswhich moves to a position where an investigation target is investigated, by using a traveling sectionand a support apparatuswhich moves to a position where letting-off and winding of a cablefor an investigation apparatus which is connected to the investigation apparatusare performed, by using a traveling section. The investigation apparatusoutputs an image of the investigation target which is captured by a camera section, to an investigation apparatus controllervia the cablefor an investigation apparatus.
