This is the software’s killer feature. A user can return from a bustling plant floor, open an image in version 4.4, and re-adjust the level, span, emissivity, and reflected background temperature hours after the fact. This non-destructive editing is critical for accuracy; if a technician incorrectly estimated a target’s emissivity in the field, the data is not lost. SmartView 4.4 allows for post-processing correction, ensuring that temperature measurements are precise before a report is generated.
