About this document
Thermal Imaging Range Performance Guide by Michael Crane is a document available to read on EtoBox.
Thermal imaging cameras can detect objects at long distances, but the distance depends on factors like the camera, lens, target size, and conditions. Detection means an object takes up 1.5 pixels, recognition needs 6 pixels to identify what it is, and identification requires higher resolution. Ranges given are for a 50% probability of achieving the goal. Many variables determine the actual range, so it cannot be simply stated how far all cameras can see.
