PRODUCT OVERVIEW

Preserve Not Only Images, but Their Blade, Position and Review Conclusion

The platform associates field images with wind farm, turbine, blade and surface orientation. AI output is treated as suspected defects for professionals to confirm, exclude, grade and annotate.

Raw images, detection records, human reviews and reports can be retained by project, supporting retrieval, periodic comparison and maintenance planning.

01

Three-Level Data Organization

Organize source images, defects, reviews and reports by wind farm, turbine and blade.

02

Blade-Image Organization

Organize and stitch local images of one blade into a continuous blade-level view.

03

AI Pre-Screening + Human Review

AI outputs suspected defects for professional confirmation, exclusion, grading and annotation.

04

History and Reports

Retain historical results by project for periodic comparison and multi-level reports.

DATA TO DECISION SUPPORT

Six-Step Process from Raw Field Images to Traceable Reports

Data completeness, acquisition angle and clarity directly affect stitching and AI results. Platform output requires professional review before maintenance use.

01

Import and Validate

Import inspection images, routes and turbine data and verify files and metadata.

02

Organize and Stitch Blades

Organize images by turbine, blade and surface direction into continuous blade views.

03

AI Suspected-Defect Detection

Use deployed models to output suspected position, type and confidence.

04

Expert Review

Confirm or exclude suspects and annotate severity, position and size.

05

Historical Alignment

Link current results to historical inspections for professional change comparison.

06

Report and Archive

Summarize reviewed results and generate blade-, turbine- or farm-level reports.

SYSTEM ARCHITECTURE

Layered Organization of Data, Algorithms, Business Logic and Review Interfaces

A layered architecture stores source data, algorithm output and human conclusions separately for traceability.

Review Defect Distribution, Severity and Source Images at Blade Level

The interface organizes results by Blade A/B/C and windward, leeward, leading-edge and other directions. Suspects trace back to images and enter review.

IMAGE STITCHING

Organize Multiple Local Images into a Continuous Unwrapped Blade View

Using image features, capture pose and project parameters, the platform matches, optimizes and blends images into a continuous blade-surface view.

Stitch quality depends on overlap, angle, exposure, texture, motion blur and completeness. Source high-resolution images must remain available when stitched views are used for browsing and location.

AI-ASSISTED SCREENING

AI Flags Suspected Items; Professionals Make the Final Determination

The platform can deploy models for different defect types. AI results include suspected location, type and confidence and are not final conclusions.

01

Surface Cracks

Visible linear or network cracking requires source-image and professional confirmation.

02

Coating Loss

Suspected peeling, flaking or exposed-substrate coating areas.

03

Corrosion

Visible corrosion, oxidation or pitting.

04

Surface Damage

Suspected physical damage from dents, scratches, impact or lightning.

HUMAN-IN-THE-LOOP REVIEW

Combine Suspect Screening, Image Verification and Severity Annotation in One Review Workflow

01

Suspect Ranking

Filter review items by type, confidence, blade region and time.

02

Multi-Source Image Verification

Jointly view source, stitched and project-supported enhanced images.

03

Confirm / Exclude / Observe

Professionals issue conclusions; AI output is not treated as a final defect.

04

Severity and Annotation

Record type, severity, position, size, contour and notes.

HISTORICAL COMPARISON

Relocate Changes at the Same Defect Position along the Timeline

For blades with alignable historical data, the platform associates images and defects from the same region, shows changes in size, severity and new findings, and retains human verification.

Historical association depends on acquisition angle, calibration, image quality, blade pose and completeness and must not be treated as a structural-life conclusion.
