3D Observation Overview

The 3D Observation module enables you, the AIR Inspector (see AIR3D User Roles), to easily review the findings of the Observation Scan process, and to create ECHs and CAIRs for those any identified integrity issues (OB-Items or Observation Items).

Observation Item relationship to the IMS Hierarchy

During the Machine Vision process:

• Integrity Issues, i.e., OB-Items, are detected.

• The OB-Items are then mapped to positions on 3D model and to specific (intersecting) Equipment (by aligning the Point Clouds with 3D model). 

• Multiple OB-Items can be related to one Equipment ID.
  

  

  It is your job, as the Remote Inspector, to these OB-Items to make sure mapped to the correct Equipment and that the correct Issue API Classes were identified. When this is done you need to add the OB-Items to Equipment Condition Histories (ECHs) and indicate if Corrective Actions (CAIRs) are needed.
