Database and Documentation<br />

Records, files, data and documents can be saved in an orderly fashion. This<br />

capability provides thc thermographers with a filing system so that records of<br />

all measurement missions can be maintained on magnetic media, including<br />

actual thermograms, time, date, location, equipment, equipment settings,<br />

measurement conditions and other related observations.<br />

Most manufacturers of thermal imaging equipment have developed<br />

comprehensive report preparation software to facilitate timely and<br />

comprehensive reporting of the findings of infrared surveys and other<br />

measurement missions. These packages provide templates that allow thc<br />

thermographer to prepare reports in standard word processor formats into<br />

which tagged image file format (TIFF) images. imported from various imaging<br />

radiometers. can be directly incorporated. Additional diagnostic software is<br />

customarily provided in these packages so that analysis and trending can be<br />

added to reports.<br />
