text: There may be a general misconception between the term corrosion inspection and corrosion monitoring, but inspection means frequent checkpoints to check for changes or deviations from predicted results, while corrosion monitoring is a continuous check to control and act quickly against change. In inspection, the purpose is to evaluate or estimate the corrosion time in order to replace or correct the corrosion, while in corrosion monitoring, the purpose is to take care of the change in order to prevent corrosion and to improve the ways of prevention.
