Technology and evidence
Connect each camera, radar, lidar or ultrasonic signal to its retained data, review status and operating conditions.
Record the image, signal or measurement within the selected system’s operating conditions.
Process relevant records; automated or AI-assisted functions depend on the product.
Check context, capture quality and limitations before interpreting a finding.
Agree the required records, report fields and available export format.
Evidence chain
Not every system retains the same data. Each product page identifies the documented capture method, output and applicable conditions.
A camera, radar, lidar or ultrasonic probe captures a physical signal within a documented operating envelope.
The workflow preserves the relevant image, measurement, signal or event record with its available reference data.
Processing and AI-assisted tools can organise or flag records. A qualified human remains responsible for final interpretation.
The output links the observation to location, status, conditions and the disclosure needed to support later review.
Worked evidence pattern
This example shows the information structure only. It is not a diagnosis, performance result or substitute for the applicable inspection procedure.
No field image published
A real project record would retain the original source file here.Code-native information pattern · illustrative fields only · no customer or inspection data
Associate the source file with the available position, time, operating condition and capture method.
Software may organise or flag a candidate. Human review records whether the observation is accepted, rejected or needs more evidence.
Keep the observation, review state, source reference and limitations together in the retained report.
Measurement methods
No single sensing method replaces the others. Selection starts with the component, access, environment and decision the output must support. Each is named below with the published standard the method is normally written against — a reference, not a claim of conformity.
Visual capture
Records visible surfaces and events. Image quality, access, lighting and line of sight remain part of the interpretation. Written against IEC 61400-5.
Distance measurement
Measures blade-to-tower clearance using the documented sensing geometry. Weather, mounting and calibration affect the project result. The clearance requirement itself originates in IEC 61400-1.
Remote wind sensing
Estimates forward wind speed and direction across configured distance layers for monitoring or project-specific integration. IEC 61400-50-3 covers nacelle-mounted lidar.
Subsurface inspection
Multiple ultrasonic elements send sound into a supported metal component. Returned signals are reconstructed as reviewable images and data. ISO 23865 covers the full-matrix capture and total focusing method.
Axial-force feedback
Measures a calibrated change in the bolt to assess preload while the hydraulic tool works toward the configured target. ISO 16047 requires the torque/clamp-force relationship to be established by test rather than assumed.
AI-assisted, human-reviewed
Organise captures, support location records, highlight candidates and prepare structured report fields where documented.
Confirming observations, resolving ambiguity, applying the relevant inspection criteria and approving the final record.
Installation, calibration, controller logic, alarm thresholds, cybersecurity, acceptance criteria and operating responsibility.

Technical review
Share the task, component, operating envelope and required output so the configuration can be reviewed against documented conditions.
