Photo Measurement Software
IA’s Software for defect measurement is taking subjective questioning out of inspection photos. Track issues with confidence and compare how they’re growing.
In traditional methods, using a different inspector each outage allots for subjective decisions. Even with newer methods such as using off-the-shelf drones still doesn’t tell you how big a defect might be. This leaves a great deal of uncertainty when deciding to repair an asset. Outages are short and time is precious, by using our Photo Measurement Software, we can quickly and accurately assess defects with an exact measurement regardless of who is evaluating the photos.
By tracking the size of a defect over time, you’re left with two vital pieces of information: distance & time. Having this information allows us to derive the rate of growth, giving your engineering team the power to predict exactly when repairs need to happen. Robotic predictive maintenance is the ultimate tool for reducing unnecessary cost during outages.
Using an off-the-shelf for simple pictures of your asset sometimes just isn’t enough. Truly useful equipment needs to enable you to make key operational decisions in the field. Deploying a drone inside your asset and solely determining that a defect just exists is only half the solution. But what if you could measure that defect and make true operational decisions based on your company’s fault limitations? With Interactive Aerial’s proprietary Photo Measurement Software, inspectors can now measure defect size and standardize inspections as time goes on.
Measure cracks as small as 1/32 of an inch, along with all of these great features:
POINT-TO-POINT
Software gives inspectors the ability to click or drag-and-drop two points and measure between them.
COMMENTS
Tagging a photo with comments for other inspectors is a helpful tool when remembering thoughts from your last outage
SINUOUS LINES
Defects are not always perfectly straight. Our measurement software can easily measure non-linear lines.
SCALING
Regardless if the position or distance from the photographed object changes next outage, the software scales to keep measurement accuracy.
CIRCUMFERENCE
Tracing the outer edge of a defect allows inspectors to understand exactly how large a corrosion area is.
UNIT TOGGLE
Switching between imperial and metric is an easy click of a button, making it effective regardless of where you’re from!
SURFACE AREA
In conjunction with the tool above, calculating the surface area of a defect is an easy feature of the software also
ACCURACY
Our robotic inspection hardware enables the Photo Measurement Software to have a few millimeters of accuracy.
