Gradients exceeding 40MV/m have been multiply demonstrated in 9-cell SRF cavities that are
foreseen for the International Linear Collider. The mass production of such cavities however
remains a challenge. A new, in situ method for optical inspection, developed at KEK/Kyoto
University allows to correlate surface features with e.g. quench locations. This and other
tools are presented that enable a systematic approach to understanding the gradient limiting
features in SRF cavities. Results from the large sample investigated at DESY are shown.
