Assuring Quality Through Acceptance Testing - Making Sure that the Business Problem is Solved: On-Demand It is the business analyst's job to define the business problem to be solved by IT.

This is done first through testing, especially acceptance testing, and then through monitoring of the installed solution in the user community. The business analyst is not only concerned with the testing itself, but also with the management and monitoring of the users doing the acceptance testing, and recording, analyzing, and evaluating the results.

Thermal inspections of PV arrays specifically can safely provide fast and accurate information regarding system health. We will present the fundamental theories and considerations for proper thermal camera use including the various applications in solar operations and maintenance (O&M) and how to read test images. We will also review several IR cameras that are commercially available and commonly used in PV inspections. Drones are another tool whose use in PV installation and inspection has increased in recent years. We will discuss the fundamentals of drones and discuss considerations when selecting a drone for commercial use. Drones can be used in a variety of applications: to obtain site information pre-sale; site or system mapping; during and after installation to determine progress; and finally to perform aerial thermographic inspections. Examples of the latter will be looked at and assessed in this course. We will introduce licensure requirements as well as common models of drones - and price points - that are commercially available which can be used in PV applications.

RESILIA™ Foundation AXELOS RESILIA™: Cyber Resilience Best Practice is designed to help commercial and government organizations around the world prevent, detect, and correct any impact cyber attacks will have on the information required to do business.
