Analysis and maintenance planning

Turn inspection evidence into a blade maintenance plan.

IRIS brings external inspection, internal inspection, LPS testing, offshore component evidence, and repair records into one cloud workspace for fleet-level decisions.

What IRIS is

One workspace for every inspection, finding and follow-up action.

IRIS is Clobotics’ cloud-based wind asset intelligence platform. It organizes external inspection images, internal blade findings, lightning protection measurements, engineering review, reports and repair context around the asset itself—connecting every turbine, blade, component, finding and action in one persistent record.

Instead of leaving evidence scattered across files, vendor reports and disconnected systems, IRIS gives teams a consistent structure for reviewing condition, comparing findings and planning maintenance. The same record remains available across campaigns, service providers, team changes and asset ownership transfers, so valuable lifecycle history is not lost.

CONNECTED EVIDENCE

Keep context with the finding

Bring images, measurements, annotations, reports and repair information together around the correct turbine, blade and component.

CONSISTENT DECISIONS

Use one review structure

Standardize location, defect type, severity and recommendation fields so teams spend less time translating different formats before deciding what to do.

PERSISTENT HISTORY

Retain the lifecycle record

Preserve inspection and repair knowledge across campaigns, teams, service providers and ownership changes.

How it works

Unify the evidence. Understand the finding. Recommend the next action.

IRIS preserves asset context through ingestion, AI-assisted analysis, expert review, recommended follow-up and long-term record retention.

UNIFY · 01 / INGEST

Connect the evidence in one asset workspace

IRIS imports external blade imagery, internal inspection findings, LPS measurements and campaign metadata into the correct asset record. Each item is tied to the turbine, blade, component, inspection date and source so the evidence arrives with its operating context intact.

UNDERSTAND · 02 / ANALYZE

Screen the imagery

AI-assisted models process the inspection imagery to surface likely findings, identify relevant blade areas and reduce the volume of obviously defect-free images requiring manual review. The result is a more focused starting point for technical assessment.

UNDERSTAND · 03 / REVIEW

Confirm and map the finding

Technical reviewers verify the evidence and document the finding using a consistent structure: precise blade location, defect type, dimensions, severity, confidence, notes and supporting imagery. The original image, component position and campaign context remain available throughout review.

ACT · 04 / RECOMMEND

Define the next action

IRIS turns the confirmed finding into an actionable recommendation—for example continued monitoring, targeted reinspection, engineering review or repair. Fleet and campaign views help teams understand urgency and coordinate follow-up across turbines and sites.

ACT · 05 / RETAIN

Keep the decision and lifecycle history

Findings, reports, recommendations, decisions and completed repair actions stay connected to the blade record. Future inspections can be compared with earlier evidence, allowing teams to see whether a condition is new, stable, progressing or already addressed.

Platform evidence

See each stage in the interface.

The actual IRIS screens show how evidence becomes mapped blade context, analysis and a documented next step.

UNDERSTAND / Blade context

Understand extent—not only the defect label.

Visual mapping keeps the finding connected to the blade surface so technical teams can judge coverage, severity and likely repair scope.

RETAIN / Shared record

Keep the summary connected to the underlying evidence.

Operator-ready outputs remain linked to the finding history, allowing teams to return to the source evidence and compare the blade across campaigns.

What operators receive

A record that survives the campaign.

The outcome is more than a report. IRIS retains inspection findings, severity, recommendations and follow-up actions so the next decision starts with the full blade history.

FAQ

Questions operators ask about IRIS.

What inspection data can IRIS organize?

IRIS brings together external blade inspection, internal blade inspection, lightning protection testing, defect annotations, severity ratings, reports and maintenance context.

Does IRIS only work with IBIS data?

IRIS is positioned as the shared asset workspace across Clobotics inspection streams, including IBIS, KIWI and Hummingbird, with campaign and maintenance context retained around the blade record.

How does IRIS help prioritize maintenance?

Mapped findings, severity information, fleet comparisons and operator-ready summaries help teams identify which turbines and defects require action first.

Does IRIS require local installation?

No. IRIS is a cloud platform designed to be accessible to authorized teams without a local software installation.
