Abstract
Systems and methods include a blade monitoring system. The blade monitoring system includes a processor. The processor is configured to receive a sensor signal from a sensor configured to observe a blade of the turbomachinery. The processor is also configured to derive a measurement based on a marking disposed on the blade of the turbomachinery, wherein the marking comprises a discrete feature; and to display the measurement to an operator of the turbomachinery
