Pipeline Measuring Data Design and Realization of Real-time Display System

Abstract

The measuring data produced by pipeline detector should be first stored then processed and analyzed before being applied in analysis of pipeline defects. The results are commonly expressed in form of graphs so that it is unable to give constant and intuitive display of pipeline defects. According to such situation, it aims at developing the visualization system which can be used in computer to simulate and give real-time display of pipeline’s detection situation, receive and deal with test data sent by the pipeline detector during its operation process, generate and display the simulated three-dimensional pipeline in order to help analysis of pipe wall. The practical application indicates that the system has the characteristics of instantaneity, authenticity, and validity etc., being able to provide demonstrations and reference for construction of other pipeline real-time visualization system.
