GLOSSARY ENTRY (DERIVED FROM QUESTION BELOW)
English term or phrase:walkthrough
French translation:visite (détaillée)
Entered by: NikkoTh

English to French translations [PRO]
Tech/Engineering - Engineering (general)
English term or phrase: walkthrough
Je pensais à "évaluation"
Sinon "état des lieux", comme dans une question déjà posée, mais je pense que ce terme est plus spécifique à l'immobilier.

Scope of work:
A CCTV technician will complete a walkthrough of X LOCATION.
The customer is looking to have X new cameras installed, and needs to confirm camera counts and placements.
The walkthrough will confirm camera counts and placements, and survey the environment prior to the installation date.
After the walkthrough is complete the equipment will be ordered, and a separate work order will be issued for the installation of the cameras

neutral  Daryo: ...détaillée is the key point, not an optional extra

disagree  Bruno Carlier: Precisely, and just the opposite, for me "Visite détaillée" doesn't stick to/describes or reflects the context. This is a far too general approach. But quite curiously it seems I am the only reader to think so. Words fail me...

Visite de chantier


Explanation:
Vu le contexte (cf. : visite pré-chantier) pour définition nombre de caméras, emplacements et installation électrique existante, j'opterais plutôt pour ce "jargon" ou encore: "visite de terrain" voire "Visite de pré-chantier".

disagree  Daryo: the term "walkthrough" could be also used for ANY "location" be it an office block, a trading estate, some farm .... or even simply a private residence.// THE POINT is to "walk around the whole of the site/location"
13 hrs
  -> A visite de "chantier" or "terrain" can clearly cover a global area of work. Further, a "chantier" can obviously take place in any private, public, small or huge place. "Terrain" could better work for this case. Not very clear why you took a point off me
disagree  Eric MARRET: "chantier" peut prêter à confusion bien qu'il fasse partie du jargon de nombreux métiers, mais rien ne dit ici que cette visite s'effectue dans un site en construction, même remarque pour pré chantier, visite préalable de terrain me semble plus adéquat
16 hrs
  -> Et visite de pré chantier ?
