UKTA
The UK's premier forum for thermography professionals
The UKTA is an association of professional practitioners of thermography. It acknowledges the growing interest in thermography among a wide range of people involved in non-destructive testing and condition monitoring.
The UKTA members cover all applications of thermography – that is, uses of infrared imaging in which measurement is important. Membership is encouraged from the following disciplines: electrical, mechanical, building, aerospace, marine engineering, medical and veterinary imaging, research, camera manufacturers, accessory manufacturers, academia, remote sensing and trainers.

UKTA activities include conference sessions, seminars and newsletters
Corporate membership is available for companies and organisations with two or more practitioners.
