Definition
实地 (shí dì) means 'on-site' or 'in the field', used adverbially before verbs like 考察 (inspect) or 检查 (check). It emphasizes going to the actual physical location. Compare with 现场 (xiàn chǎng), which refers to the scene of an event (e.g., crime scene), and 就地 (jiù dì), which means 'on the spot' without moving from one's current location.
