  2.  Introduction  Data Organization – Core NDT Image Management Technology – Technical Overview  Data Mining – Damage Trending and Reporting – NDT Coverage – Process Control – Manufacturing Process Control – Integration with Damage Analysis Packages  Summary

  3.  Review work being performed for Air Force and Navy – Wanted to get more out of their inspection data • Coverage • Trending • Comparison • Improved communication with maintainers and engineers  Modalities – Initially looked primarily at computed radiography – Now working more with C-scan ultrasound and digital photographs as well

  4.  What do we mean by Inspection Data Management? Organize Archive Mine

  5.  Introduction  Data Organization – Core NDT Image Management Technology – Relationship to Data Mining – Technical Overview  Data Mining – Damage Trending and Reporting – NDT Coverage – Process Control – Manufacturing Process Control – Integration with Damage Analysis Packages  Summary

  6.  “Google Maps” for NDT image data - We are developing software to help organize, store and mine inspection data  Core Principal: All inspection data should be aligned to a CAD model of the inspected structure  Core Capability: Automatically align inspection image data to CAD models

  7. • Acquire image (Radiograph, UT C- scan, etc.) • Automatically align to CAD model • Store in database • Repeat for entire structure Acquired Image

  8.  By retaining the spatial data associated with the inspection images and indications, additional information can be mined  Derived trends can have better than “part” resolution  Missing coverage is immediately apparent  Additional information available for process control integration or other analysis tools

  9.  Goal was to develop robust framework to organize inspection data  Initially reviewed a wide range of applications – Data was not consistently aligned – Single image/Multiple images – Overlap/No overlap – Clear features/No clear features – Typically there was additional information – Wide range of “distortions” in the image data  One approach will not handle all inspections

  10. Alignment Incoming Tag Method Data Translator Database Data/Image Alignment Mining & Alignment Visualization Database Tools Annotation Translator

  11.  Alignment algorithms can most broadly be partitioned into area based and feature based algorithms  Feature based methods extract salient features and proceed to match those features to those associated with the model  Area based methods operate on the image as a whole

  15.  Introduction  Data Organization – Core NDT Image Management Technology – Technical Overview  Data Mining – Damage Trending and Reporting – NDT Coverage – Process Control – Manufacturing Process Control – Integration with Damage Analysis Packages  Summary

  16. • 122 Tail numbers • All annotations on images marked on diagram • Includes data from over 6,000 CR images

  17.  Damage / Defects – Location – Associated data  Trends – Spatial – Across Fleet – Across Time – Across Service Location – Etc.

  18. • Align Data • Extract Annotations • Visualize Trends • Extract Quantitative Data • Drill Down to Original Data Positive Material

  19. • Provide real time insight into area coverage • Highlight areas of missing data • Streamline production and maintenance practices Gaps in Data

  20. Portion of 4 Ultrasonic  C-scans of a larger inspection Small areas of missed  coverage are much more apparent when the data is aligned

  21. Original scan Scan after maintenance Difference between scans highlight new damage • Comparing before and after maintenance scans can be useful for highlighting new damage caused by process control issues

  22. Take a Automatically Find damage FEA Model of Photograph Map Damage on CAD model part back to FEA model  Focus is on development of tools to improve maintenance of composite structures  Align digital photographs to 3-D CAD models  Export to analysis package

  23.  Data organized by alignment to CAD – Alignment is automated – Alignment to CAD enables multiple types of analysis  Benefits – Coverage – Trending – Comparison – Improved communication with maintainers and engineers – Export to analysis packages

  24.  This work was supported by the US Air Force and Navy under the following contracts: – SBIR AF061-79 Phase II • Contract FA8650-07-C-5210 • CTOR Gary Steffes (AFRL/RXLP) • AF Public Release Case Number: 88ABW-2009-2904 – SBIR N07-116 Phase II • Contract N68335-09-C-0001 • CTOR Andrew Guy (NAVAIR 4.3.3.5) • Navy Public Release Case Number: YY-09-702
