Use case

Smarter site inspections & assessments

From field notes to structured change: UDiTH makes inspections part of your digital twin.

UDiTH makes site inspections fast, digital, and traceable. Access models and documents on any device, capture findings on-site, and link them directly to MoC workflows, IoT data, and AI tools—ensuring issues are resolved quickly and transparently.

From field notes to structured change: UDiTH makes inspections part of your digital twin.

The challenge

Conventional inspections require heavy preparation, outdated printouts, and handwritten notes. Findings are often re-entered later, wasting time, duplicating work, and risking critical issues being lost in the process.

The UDiTH solution

UDiTH brings inspections into the digital twin ecosystem:

  • Mobile access: Stream or download 3D models, P&IDs, and documents on Windows, Android, or iOS.
  • On-Site capture: Sketch, annotate, and link findings directly to 3D objects and P&IDs.
  • Smart navigation: GPS-based orientation in plant environments.
  • Direct feedback: Findings flow instantly into the digital twin—no paper, no re-entry.

Relevant UDiTH capabilities:

  • CoTrack: Collaborate across all stakeholders, structure inspection findings into tasks, assign responsibilities, and track closure transparently.
  • Historian insight: Validate observations against IoT live sensor data to support root-cause analysis.
  • RealitySnap AI: Capture missing or modified components with photos and update the 3D model instantly.
  • Sketching: Record inspection findings or boundaries directly in 3D and P&ID.
  • Markups: Add quick annotations on models or documents to highlight issues without altering the originals.
  • Reports: Easily generate reports for inspections and audits with simple Excel export functionality.
