Claim 10:
11. A computer-implemented method, comprising:
providing a user interface enabling a project-related document to be uploaded to a computer system;
receiving, using the computer system, a project-related document associated with a site uploaded via the user interface enabling the project-related document to be uploaded;
receiving, using the computer system, location data corresponding to a site;
enabling, using the computer system, a map comprising the site to be presented on at least one user device;
enabling a first user, associated with a first user device, to issue an invitation to a second user, associated with a mobile second user device, to engage in a video chat session regarding an inspection at the site, the mobile second user device comprising a camera, a microphone, and a display;
enabling a video chat session to be conducted in real time, including one or more inspection-related communications, via the first user device and the mobile second user device;
receiving in real time, using the computer system, site inspection content via the mobile second user device, the site inspection content comprising inspection video content transmitted from the mobile second user device;
enabling the first user to annotate a still version of a frame of the inspection video content by positioning geometric shapes on the frame and/or by adding text comments to the frame;
enabling the real time site inspection content to be stored in non-transitory memory;
causing a document to be generated comprising one or more annotated frames of the inspection video content;
associating the site inspection content comprising the inspection video content streamed from the mobile second user to the system with at least one site related document;
providing for display on a user device a first user interface that enables a user to associate one or more items of site inspection content with a project;
receiving, via the first user interface, an association of at least one item of site inspection content with a first project;
accessing an plan document, corresponding to the first project, including at least a first plan sheet;
providing the first plan sheet for display on the user device;
providing a user interface via which a user can associate the at least one item of site inspection content with the first plan sheet;
providing to at least one user device at least one item of site inspection content, comprising a playable site inspection content item, and information related to the inspection session;
enabling the playable site inspection content item to be played on the at least one user device in response to a user activation of a play control;
providing access, the first user device, to an annotation tool set, comprising a plurality of image annotation tools, including at least a drawing tool and shape tool;
enabling the annotation tool set to be used to graphically annotate frames in the inspection video content via first user device; and
enabling the video chat session to be conducted in real time, including one or more inspection related instructions, via the mobile second user device.
