A technique for analyzing damage to a motor vehicle, capable of accurately
specifying damage on each component by a simple operation. A damage
analysis-supporting system for supporting analysis of damage on a motor
vehicle has an image generating-portion (301) and a damage-analyzing
portion (303). The image-generating portion (301) imports individual
drawing data corresponding to components constituting the vehicle into
layers and generates an image of a vehicle body seen from a particular
direction by superposing the layers. The damage-analyzing portion (303)
receives input by a user to the image, where the input designates the
area of damage. At the same time, the damage-analyzing portion (303)
specifies a damaged portion of each component on a layer-by-layer basis,
where each layer has drawing data that belong to the area of damage
designated by the user.
