    Abstract: Computer aided inspection systems (CAIS) and method for inspection, error analysis and comparison of structures are presented herein. In some embodiments, a CAIS may include a SLAM system configured to determine real-world global localization information of a user in relation to a structure being inspected using information obtained from a first sensor package, a model alignment system configured to: use the determined global localization information to index into a corresponding location in a 3D computer model of the structure being inspected; and align observations and/or information obtained from the first sensor package to the local area of the model 3D computer model of the structure extracted; a second sensor package configured to obtain fine level measurements of the structure; and a model recognition system configured to compare the fine level measurements and information obtained about the structure from the second sensor package to the 3D computer model.

    Abstract: A method for providing a real time, three-dimensional (3D) navigational map for platforms includes integrating at least two sources of multi-modal and multi-dimensional platform sensor information to produce a more accurate 3D navigational map. The method receives both a 3D point cloud from a first sensor on a platform with a first modality and a 2D image from a second sensor on the platform with a second modality different from the first modality, generates a semantic label and a semantic label uncertainty associated with a first space point in the 3D point cloud, generates a semantic label and a semantic label uncertainty associated with a second space point in the 2D image, and fuses the first space semantic label and the first space semantic uncertainty with the second space semantic label and the second space semantic label uncertainty to create fused 3D spatial information to enhance the 3D navigational map.
