Abstract: A pipeline identification and calibration apparatus coupled to a pipe communicates with an in-line inspection tool to help a user to determine an extent of damage suffered by the pipe is provided. The apparatus includes a communication sheet coupled to the pipe and having a pipe calibration area and a pipe identification area, the pipe calibration area having a plurality of etchings, voids or magnetic inserts having variable dimensions and spacing between adjacent members of either the etchings, voids or the magnetic inserts. The user compares data generated by the in-line inspection tool to the etchings, voids or magnetic inserts on the pipe calibration area of the communication sheet to determine the extent of damage to the pipe.
