UrbanSight inspection support workflow

From capture to comparison.

Tools and services that fit alongside an inspection program: collect imagery and spatial data, organize findings, provide reference information for field inspection, and maintain records across inspection cycles.

Digital data acquisition

Create visual references for inspection teams.

UrbanTech's tunnel workflow uses overlapping high-resolution imagery to create broad visual coverage of tunnel surfaces. The resulting imagery can be rectified, stitched, and linked to stationing for repeatable inspection reference.

Field imagery→Rectify + stitch→Station-referenced record

Step by step

The record compounds over time.

01

Coordinate inspection support & data capture

Coordinate access, imagery collection, and documentation support with the inspection team. Inspectors determine and perform the required field work.

02

Photos / video / LiDAR collection

Capture overlapping high-resolution imagery and spatial data needed to reconstruct the visible condition of the asset.

03

Rectify, stitch & reference

For tunnel work, imagery can be geometrically corrected and stitched into a continuous Tunnel Surface Mosaic tied to stationing and location.

04

Map conditions & inspection history

Transfer prior findings, assign persistent identifiers, and connect conditions to station, element, type, extent, imagery, notes, and inspection history.

05

Review reference records & data QA/QC

Organize prior findings, flag preliminary image observations for inspector review, and check record quality to support field inspection planning.

06

Support the team's field inspection

Provide location-linked reference information while qualified inspectors examine current conditions and perform sounding, tactile examination, measurement, and other work required by the inspection scope.

07

Update the persistent record

Add the inspection team's current observations and verified findings to maintain useful records for future inspection and maintenance work.

Continuous context

The Tunnel Surface Mosaic

A TSM converts a sequence of overlapping field images into a continuous visual condition record. Station markers and mapped findings can make locations easier to recover and compare during recurring inspections.

Inspection team's field work

Locate → Measure → Photograph → Redocument

Inspectors perform the field observations, measurements, photographs, and verification required by the inspection scope.

UrbanSight support alongside inspection

Organize → Reference → Compare → Update records

UrbanSight helps make prior imagery and findings accessible and connects new field observations to the inspection record.

Field verification required

Inspection and engineering decisions remain with qualified professionals.

Visible-condition screening can help organize the work. Final classification, limits, severity, and cause require field verification, sounding, measurement, and engineering judgment as applicable.

Pilot the workflow

Prove the value on a defined asset segment.

A pilot can establish capture methods, station/location accuracy, field usability, comparison workflow, and the deliverables that best fit your inspection program.
