Abstract
A shooting method executed by a shooting device includes: shooting first images of a target space; generating a first three-dimensional point cloud of the target space, based on the first images and a first shooting position and a first shooting orientation of each of the first images; and determining a first region of the target space for which generating a second three-dimensional point cloud which is denser than the first three-dimensional point cloud is difficult, using the first three-dimensional point cloud and without generating the second three-dimensional point cloud. The determining includes generating a mesh using the first three-dimensional point cloud, and determining the region other than a second region of the target space for which the mesh is generated.
