Thermal inspection

The thermal survey layer places captured temperature-pattern imagery in its correct site location. This lets reviewers understand where each observation sits within the asset layout instead of working through disconnected photographs. It supports systematic coverage review, comparison with other spatial information and efficient navigation from a map to the relevant inspection evidence. Interpretation remains tied to the agreed operating and environmental conditions.

An anomaly map presents identified thermal observations at their mapped asset locations. Symbols and agreed categories help the team see where unusual relative patterns occur and move directly to the linked supporting evidence. The map is designed for screening and maintenance planning rather than unsupported diagnosis, giving technical reviewers a clear spatial overview that can be filtered, shared and compared with asset or inspection records.

Paired RGB and thermal images show the same asset or inspection area in visible and heat-pattern views. The visible image provides physical context, while the thermal image records the relative pattern observed during capture. Keeping them linked helps reviewers identify the correct component, distinguish environmental or surface influences and decide which observations require closer technical assessment, site verification or continued monitoring.

The observation register is a structured list of the items identified during review. Each entry can include an asset reference, mapped location, image links, observation category, notes and follow-up status. A spreadsheet or CSV format makes the information easy to sort, assign and bring into existing maintenance systems. It creates a practical bridge between the survey evidence and the team's own inspection or action workflow.

The priority review groups thermal observations using the categories agreed for the project. It helps teams separate routine review items from patterns that may deserve earlier technical attention, while avoiding claims that cannot be supported by remote sensing alone. Each category remains connected to the location and paired imagery so qualified asset specialists can assess the evidence, operating context and appropriate next step.

The inspection summary brings the survey scope, capture conditions, mapped observations and review categories into one readable record. It explains the inspection basis, links key findings to their evidence and notes important limitations or recommended follow-up. The report is structured so asset managers and technical reviewers can understand what was observed, where it was found and how to continue the assessment.
