Camera Field-of-View Planner
Place your construction camera on the map, aim it and see the angle of view and captured width instantly – for GoPro (Wide/Linear) or DSLR (APS-C).
No camera yet – search for your site and add a camera.
Drag the camera to move it · drag the white dot on the edge to set direction & distance. Values are horizontal angles of view. Top-down view (2D) – mounting height and tilt are not modelled.
With the planner you can find out whether a camera position covers the whole site – before anything is mounted. GoPro (DIY & Basic) offers a very wide field of view in Wide mode, and a tighter one without fisheye distortion in Linear mode. The DSLR (APS-C) is controlled via focal length: shorter mm = wider, longer mm = tighter and closer in. Which variant fits your project is shown by the quote configurator; background in the time-lapse guide. How to choose the frame in a legally safe way – without capturing neighbouring properties – is covered in our article on cameras & data protection on site; why the right perspective matters in disputes is explained under evidence in case of construction delays.
