1. A method for inspecting an object surface of a viewed object, the method comprising the steps of: displaying a two-dimensional image of the object surface on a display; determining three-dimensional coordinates of a plurality of points on the object surface using a central processor unit; determining a depth profile image of a three-dimensional geometry of at least a portion of the object surface using the central processor unit; simultaneously displaying the two-dimensional image and the depth profile image on the display; placing a plurality of measurement cursors on the two-dimensional image using a pointing device and displaying the plurality of measurement cursors on the two-dimensional image on the display; displaying on the depth profile image a plurality of measurement identifiers corresponding to the measurement cursors on the two-dimensional image; and determining a measurement dimension of the object surface based on the locations of the plurality of measurement cursors on the two-dimensional image using the central processor unit.
