More Information
Summary:A computer implemented method for remote inspection of infrastructure of an industrial process in an installation for extraction, processing and/or production of materials. The process is supervised by a control system including one or more computers, and one or more computer display apparatus. At least one computer includes a graphic computer model and a 3D model of the process infrastructure, where a position in the process infrastructure in the 3D model is arranged selectable, wherein the selected position is identified from a viewpoint in the model. The viewpoint information from the model is used to position one or more cameras in the real installation. Images from the real installation are combined with the 3D model in different ways. A remote inspection system and a computer program are also described.
