Remote sensing in practice

From a thermal anomaly to an inspection action

Why location, context and validation matter as much as the thermal image.

Capture in the right conditions

Thermal patterns depend on operating and environmental conditions. Define the inspection objective and suitable acquisition conditions before sending the aircraft.

Attach each finding to an asset

A useful record links an observation to an identifiable asset and location. Pair thermal evidence with a visual view so the maintenance team can find and investigate the right area.

Treat anomalies as findings to review

A temperature difference is an observation, not a complete diagnosis. Review it against the asset context and agree the appropriate follow-up inspection.
