One of the challenges that operators have historically faced is the ability to archive inline inspection reports in a way that makes them easily accessible for future use.
Further, reports are traditionally static snapshots of a specific set of data taken at the time the report was generated with limited visualization options. Traditional reports have also been limited in their usefulness because the ability to have real-time discussions about them have been hampered by “human latency” (i.e., scheduling availability, requirement for face-to-face time, etc.)
