Digital Blackboards and Photo Manipulation | Risks of Electronic Submission in the Construction Industry

Hello, everyone.

This is Enta.

How was your three-day weekend?

It was just a regular Sunday for me, lol.

On Saturday, I went on a business trip to Shizuoka, and on Monday, I was working on the rock bolt heads lol

Looks like there won't be any long weekends for a while, lol.

I actually prefer it when things are busy.


But that's beside the point.

Digital Small Blackboard

Digital mini-chalkboards are becoming quite popular, aren't they?

We're using it in earnest, too.

I use it every now and then, too—it's really handy.

When you think about how much sorting work it saves, it really is a breeze.

It’s not like this is something the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism just announced the other day, but since they’re promoting ICT, I’m all for it.

The ICT Wave Shows No Signs of Stopping

The Japan Construction Information Center is giving an interesting presentation, so please check it out.

Jassic—a familiar name in the construction industry. You know what I mean when I say “Collins,” right?

Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism Pilot Program!Improving Work Efficiency and Preventing Tampering Through the Digitization of Small Whiteboards

People don't tamper with things like that these days, do they? Probably lol

Is it possible to tamper with it?

To be honest, I can do it.

After all, since it was created digitally, it can be digitally edited.

There's an unspoken understanding that, even though everyone is fully aware of that, they choose not to do it.

"No way, they're definitely going to find out!"—that's what you were thinking, right?

No matter what kind of check system you use, you won't be able to tell.

That's the scary thing about digital technology.

Alteration and Editing

Definition of "tampering": Making inappropriate changes due to misunderstandings or a lack of knowledge, even without malicious intent.

What is photo manipulation?: The act of editing a photo with the intent to deceive someone.

What Is Photo Editing?: Emphasizing clarity and enhancing visual appeal

Even though "falsification" and "editing" (photo retouching) involve doing exactly the same thing, their meanings are so different.

Malice is a terrifying thing.

What do you do when you make a mistake?

Let's just apologize honestly!

That's all there is to it.

I recommend apologizing openly rather than trying to cover it up and living in fear.

Or maybe just reshooting it is the best option.

If you can't retake the photo, consult with the staff member at the municipal office.

The local government office will definitely be happy to help you!

Absolutely!!

I, too, have failed countless times in the past!

However, there were also many instances where, after consulting with the government office and receiving their guidance, the matter was resolved without any repercussions.

Let's explain the situation clearly to the government office, apologize, and ask for their guidance.

 

See you later.
