The dedicated APP or WeChat mini-program is developed by the measurement unit, and all operations of the measurement personnel are based on the dedicated APP management terminal or WeChat mini-program management terminal.

[0067] S1: Personnel identity authentication: The operator of the customer who submits the inspection arrives at the customer's unit, and uses a personal terminal to perform double identity authentication, and obtains authorization after passing the identity authentication.

[0068] Specifically, before calibrating an instrument, it is necessary to verify that the operator is qualified. If an unqualified operator is operating the instrument, the subsequent verification process related to the calibration process cannot be carried out. By verifying the qualification of the operator, the reliability of the calibration process and results is guaranteed.

[0069] In S1, the dual identity authentication includes account password authentication and face recognition authentication. The specific steps of using the personal terminal to perform the dual identity authentication are:

[0070] S101: Obtaining the account passwords and facial images of n authorized inspection client operators in advance from the cloud server, where n≥1;

[0071] S102: The customer operator uses the personal terminal to enter the account number and password, and uses the front camera of the personal terminal to take a facial image and upload it to the cloud server. The cloud server matches the uploaded account number and password with the facial image to obtain a matching result;

[0072] S103: If the matching result matches any authorized operator of the inspection client, it is determined that the inspection client operator has passed the verification; otherwise, it is determined that the inspection client operator has not passed the verification.

[0073] In S1, the operator of the customer submitting the inspection also performs location verification at the same time. The specific steps of the location verification are: the operator of the customer submitting the inspection uses the personal terminal to upload the current location data to the cloud server, and the cloud server matches the location data uploaded by the personal terminal with the stored location data of the corresponding customer submitting the inspection unit. If they match, the location verification is passed; otherwise, the location verification is not passed.

[0074] S2: Verification of the inspection unit information and the inspection instrument information: The inspection client operator uses the personal terminal to upload the inspection unit information and the inspection instrument information to the cloud server for verification.

[0075] Specifically, the S2 specifically includes:

[0076] S201: The inspection client operator uses the personal terminal to input the name and location data of the inspection unit and uploads them to the cloud server;

[0077] S202: The operator of the customer using the rear camera of the personal terminal takes a picture of the appearance of the instrument and the model nameplate of the instrument, and uploads the picture to the cloud server;

[0078] The instrument model nameplate image includes: instrument name, manufacturer, test object, product type and product serial number;

[0079] S203: Compare the inspection unit information and the inspection instrument information uploaded to the cloud server with the data in the independent account of the instrument in the cloud server. If all items match, the information verification is passed; otherwise, the information verification fails.

[0080] S3: Blind sample verification of the standard object: The customer operator uses the personal terminal to scan the QR code of the blind sample of the standard object and decode it, obtains the corresponding serial number and uploads it to the cloud computing platform, and the cloud computing platform retrieves the calibration value of the standard object corresponding to the uploaded serial number.

[0081] Specifically, in S3, the cloud computing platform retrieves the calibration value of the standard object corresponding to the uploaded serial number in the following steps:

[0082] S301: Register the blind sample serial number and calibration value of the standard in the cloud database in advance;

[0083] S302: A dynamic lookup table is maintained in the cloud computing platform, and the dynamic lookup table is used to match the serial number of the blind sample of the standard object with the calibration value of the corresponding standard object in the cloud database.

[0084] The operator of the customer who submits the test will use the instrument to be tested to measure the blind sample of the standard on site, and directly upload the measurement data to the cloud computing platform after the instrument obtains it. During this process, the operator of the customer who submits the test cannot observe the calibration value of the blind sample of the standard (or standard instrument).

[0085] S4: Video verification operation: The customer operator uses the instrument to be tested to measure the blind sample of the standard object, and uses the personal terminal and the cloud platform camera to form a dual-camera shooting overall operation process, and uploads the video stream to the cloud database and the TV wall of the measurement unit.

[0086] Specifically, the personal terminal and the cloud platform camera constitute a dual camera position, and both have a two-way voice call function. The instrument to be tested is operated under the voice guidance of the measurement personnel, and the operation screen and the operation space including the instrument to be tested, the operator, and the operating computer are photographed separately to record the entire process of operating the instrument.

[0087] In S4, the video wall of the measurement unit is connected to the cloud database, the cloud database stores the captured video stream within a specified time, and the video wall can replay the captured video stream through the cloud database at any time;

[0088] The operator of the customer submitting the inspection uses the personal terminal or portable recording device to communicate with the metrology personnel in real time, and the metrology personnel guides the operator of the customer submitting the inspection to operate;

[0089] The personal terminal or the portable recording device has a two-way voice communication function.

[0090] S5: The instrument to be tested uploads the measurement value: After the operator of the customer uses the instrument to be tested to measure the blind sample of the standard object, the measurement data is obtained and uploaded to the cloud computing platform. The cloud computing platform automatically calculates the uncertainty and automatically generates a calibration certificate to be authorized.

[0091] Specifically, in S5, the calculation of the uncertainty and the generation of the calibration certificate to be authorized are both completed on the cloud computing platform, and the operator of the customer submitting the sample for inspection cannot observe the calibration value of the blind sample of the standard.

[0092] After the corresponding pre-job training, the operators of the customer who submits the test materials for inspection will not be able to know the calibration value information of the blind standard sample when operating the instrument to be tested to measure the blind standard sample at the inspection site. They can only use the instrument to be tested to test the blind standard sample and upload the test results to the cloud computing platform to automatically calculate the uncertainty and automatically generate a certificate to prevent the operators of the customer who submits the test materials from making calculation errors and falsifying the data.

[0093] S6: Certificate Authorization: The metrologist observes the operation process of calibrating the instrument to be tested and the measurement data through the TV wall, and after confirming that the operation process is correct and the measurement data has not been tampered with, approves and authorizes the calibration certificate to be authorized and uploads it to the cloud server.

[0094] In S6, the cloud computing platform and the video wall can simultaneously receive multiple landmark blind sample accounts. The video wall has multiple independent TVs, and the monitoring video streams of the inspection client operators of multiple inspection client units are displayed on different TVs on the video wall respectively.

[0095] The approved calibration certificate is uploaded to the independent account of the instrument established in the cloud server. The independent account also includes the time of the last calibration of the instrument, the electronic certificate of the last calibration visa authorization of the instrument, and the time when the instrument needs to be calibrated next;

[0096] The operator of the customer submitting the instrument for inspection affixes the QR code for accessing the independent account to the calibrated instrument.

[0097] The calibration personnel of the central traceability laboratory of the measurement unit will review the operator's calibration process of the spectrometer, and after passing the review, they will sign the electronic certificate and upload it to an independent account in the cloud database. The independent account can be accessed through the QR code attached to the instrument.

[0098] The entire process involves only two units: the client unit submitting the product for inspection and the measurement unit, which is a sub-unit of the central traceability laboratory.

[0099] Only three types of personnel are involved: the inspection personnel of the customer who submits the goods for inspection, the operator of the customer who submits the goods for inspection of the measurement unit, and the measurement personnel of the measurement unit;

[0100] The operations that the metrology personnel need to complete include: selecting blind samples of standard objects based on the information uploaded by the inspection personnel of the inspection customer, mailing blind samples of standard objects to the designated inspection customer operators, delegating the inspection customer operators to the required inspection customer units, communicating with the inspection customer operators in real time and guiding the operations, observing the instrument operation process and measurement data, authorizing unauthorized calibration certificates, etc.
