However, there were some cases where operators could not plan well because they could not recognize the width of heavy machines. This result suggested that only views to provide information of environment could not help operators plan completely. Therefore, as future work, we will develop systems which can let operators recognize the relationship between environment and heavy machines, and help operators to plan before work. Also, we will investigate the mechanism of creating cognitive maps depending on the parameters of pre-offering views such as duration and ACKNOWLEDGMENT This research as supported in part by JSPS KAKENHI Grant Numbers 26870656 and 16K06196, in part by Casio Science Promotion Foundation, and in part by the Research Institute for Science and Engineering, Waseda Univeristy.

N2 - In teleoperation of heavy machines, work efficiency will be 50% lower than manned operation because operators cannot obtain effective information about work sites due to the limitation of current monitoring systems. Operators would have opportunities to obtain such information before work (about a week required to introduce teleoperation systems) and during work. As a fundamental study to support operator's spatial cognition, we developed views to provide spatial information of work sites before work. Humans have cognitive maps which are created based on knowledge acquired from survey and route perspectives. To make operators acquire the above two knowledge, we provide a bird's-eye view that can be changed by operators to acquire a knowledge from survey perspective, and a view from operator's viewpoint that can be changed by operator's intention to acquire a knowledge from route perspective. To evaluate two pre-offering views, we preformed experiments using a virtual reality simulator. The results indicated that a view to acquire a knowledge from survey perspective could help operators plan totally and one to acquire a knowledge from route perspective could help operators plan locally, and could increase work efficiency.
