An information collection system includes a control device installed at a vehicle, a collection device that collects obstacle information from a plurality of the control devices, and a relay device that relays communications between the control device and the collection device. A first processor of the control device calculates a degree of confidence that an obstacle as included in a captured image captured by an image capture device provided at the vehicle, and transmits image information related to the captured image, position information added to the captured image, and the degree of confidence, to the relay device. A second processor of the relay device receives the image information, the position information, and the degree of confidence, from the control devices, and identifies an obstacle included in a captured image according to the image information in descending order of the degree of confidence. If an obstacle has been identified, the second processor transmits text information relating to the position of the identified obstacle and the content of the identified obstacle to the collection device. A third processor of the collection device receives the text information from one or more of the relay devices and stores the text information corresponding to the identified obstacle.
