Map And Site Context
How map context, site layout, orthophoto layers, and georeferenced findings support inspection decisions.
Purpose
Map and site context help reviewers understand where evidence sits in the real world. Image inspection answers what is visible on a frame; map and orthophoto context answer where that evidence is located, what surrounds it, and how it relates to access, terrain, and site layout.
Context Sources
- Asset coordinates and portfolio location metadata.
- Site layout files and primary layout images.
- Orthophoto COG outputs and elevation-derived layers.
- Georeferenced annotations from the orthophoto viewer.
- Mission-level documentation photos and videos.
Use Cases
- Confirm access paths, clearances, and surrounding obstructions.
- Attach findings to map coordinates instead of only to image pixels.
- Compare surface features against terrain layers.
- Support stakeholder reports with site-level visual context.
