Inspection Viewer Tools

Navigation tools change the view without changing evidence. Pan, zoom in, zoom out, fit view, next, previous, maximize, and minimize help reviewers move quickly while preserving the source record.

• Use zoom for detail inspection before creating small annotations.
• Use fit or reset when you lose the source frame context.
• Use next and previous to review a capture sequence without closing the viewer.

• Box selection creates rectangular finding geometry for equipment, panels, defects, or surface regions.
• Point selection anchors a finding at a precise location.
• Note pins create movable contextual notes without requiring a full defect geometry.
• Hide and show controls let reviewers reduce overlay clutter while preserving saved findings.

Ruler measures straight-line distance from two image points. It depends on range, camera field of view, image size, and calibration confidence.

Rectangle measures apparent width, height, and area from a selected box. It is best for panels, cabinets, mounts, and repeatable rectangular objects.

Circle measures radius, diameter, circumference, and area from center and edge points. It is useful for dishes, circular mounts, pipe openings, and corrosion zones.

Cable trace measures a polyline through several clicked points. It is designed for sagging, routed, or curved cable runs where a straight ruler would understate length.

Line of sight samples the selected pixel ray and reports world azimuth/elevation when camera heading and gimbal metadata are reliable.

Gravity tilt compares a selected image line against the gravity direction inferred from gimbal roll and pitch.

Manual tilt measures an angle between a reviewer-drawn line and a reference line when metadata is weak or unavailable.

Panel pointing solves approximate panel boresight from four visible panel corners, combining image clicks with camera geometry.

Dish pointing fits a dish aperture from rim points. More evenly spaced rim points improve the stability of the normal estimate.

Thermal spot reads the temperature-like value at one pixel or small neighborhood. It is useful for hotspots and connector checks.

Thermal ROI summarizes a selected rectangle with minimum, maximum, average, and distribution context.

Thermal palette changes visual interpretation without changing the underlying source. White-hot, black-hot, iron, and rainbow palettes support different review tasks.

Isotherm bands highlight configured ranges so the reviewer can separate normal background from elevated or low-temperature regions.

AI triage runs defect inference where available. Reviewers can configure confidence and IoU thresholds, switch display mode, show or hide labels and scores, select detections, and create findings from reviewed detections.

AI output should be treated as reviewer assistance. Human review remains responsible for accepting, editing, or rejecting a proposed defect.

When a finding is selected, a compact editor can appear near the geometry. This lets the reviewer edit title, notes, category, severity, visibility, and delete state without losing visual context.
