Post –disaster inspections using Infrared cameras can be an invaluable method of rapidly identifying remnant hot spots, assuring that the fire is totally extinguished and providing invaluable data for insurance assessors with their Cause and Origin investigations. The clear IR images of normally invisible diagnostic evidence can assist in the planning and execution of the restoration programme and in the settlement process. After flooding, IR can rapidly define the degree of water damage and enhance the drying process by rendering the wet portion of materials visible. |
