1. A worker terminal configured to be connected to a support apparatus and transmit a moving image to the support apparatus upon encoding the moving image, the support apparatus being configured to support, from a remote location, work performed by a worker including installing, repairing, inspecting, or removing a device, based on the moving image captured at a work site, the worker terminal comprising:
a processor;
a memory; and
a camera configured to capture the moving image, wherein the processor is configured to:
perform a recognition process on the moving image captured by the camera to identify a target area;
acquire one parameter set among a plurality of parameter sets for processing the moving image, each of the plurality of parameter sets defining parameters that are different for the target area and a non-target area other than the target area, and
process the moving image, in response to the target area being identified in the moving image, by switching the parameters corresponding to the acquired one parameter set for the target area and the non-target area such that a data amount per unit area at a time of transmitting the moving image is different for the target area and the non-target area.
