A measurement campaign defines the overall scope of thickness measurements of the hull structure required in preparation of a CAP survey or a class survey. In particular, IACS URZ10 requires that "In any kind of survey, i.e. special, intermediate, annual or other surveys having the scope of the foregoing ones, thickness measurements of structures in areas where close-up surveys are required shall be carried out simultaneously with close-up surveys." Typically the results of a measurement campaign are reported to ship owner and classification society, who use them for the purpose of strength assessments as well as for repair planning.
