A method and apparatus for inspecting a surface of an object. Data from measuring the surface of the object is obtained to form surface data for the object. A range of frequencies for features on the object is selected based on a range of distances between adjacent peaks for the features. The features are formed by a tool moving along a number of paths. Desired surface data for the features is obtained from the surface data using the range of frequencies selected. A determination is made as to whether the desired surface data for the features meets a policy specifying a desired surface for the object. In response to an absence of a determination that the desired surface data for the features meets the policy, the object is reworked.
