Applied Technical Services offers forensic thermal imaging services that aid with investigations and inspections.
What is Forensic Thermal Imaging?
Infrared thermography, or forensic thermal imaging, is a process that converts an object’s thermal energy into images of patterns displayed on a thermal imaging device. These patterns provide insight into the conditions of environments contained within structures such as pipes or walls. Thermal imaging is effective at discovering irregularities involving:
- Abnormally Hot Electric Components
- Insulation Defects
- Cracks in a Building’s Foundation
- Excessive Moisture
- Plumbing Issues
- Inferior Building Materials
Thermography and Forensic Investigations
Thermography is a popular test method for investigations involving building and homes’ structural integrity and inner workings. The technology helps investigators and maintenance personnel quickly locate and evaluate areas of concern in hard-to-reach places. Thermography has several benefits that aid in the investigation process, including:
- Nondestructive Testing
- Noncontact Technology
- Real-Time Results
- Ideal for Inaccessible Areas of Interest
- Effective in Small or Large Areas
