An apparatus is provided for management of client devices for maintenance of a structural product. The apparatus is caused to receive device manifest reports that include information about the client devices and digital content hosted by respective library apps on the client devices. The apparatus is caused to generate a graphical user interface (GUI) to visually summarize the information, with the GUI embodied as a dashboard with a layout of software widgets. And the apparatus is caused to send the dashboard to an administrative device for display. This causes execution of the layout of software widgets on the dashboard at the administrative device to access the information from the content management platform, produce respective infographics to visually summarize the client devices and the digital content hosted by the respective library apps, based on the information, and display the respective infographics in the dashboard at the administrative device.

Management of client devices for maintenance of a structural product

A portable electronic device for assessing an affected area of an aircraft is disclosed. A reference marker having a known size is located on the aircraft. The portable electronic device includes a processor in communication with a structural database, where the structural database includes a template that defines a maximum allowable size of damage to the aircraft. The processor executes instructions for determining an actual size of the affected area based on the known size of the reference marker. The processor also executes instructions for comparing the actual size of the affected area with the maximum allowable size of damage to the aircraft. The processor further executes instructions for determining that the actual size of the affected area exceeds the maximum allowable size of damage to the aircraft.
