Calcultion of the distance

How we can calculate the distance covered by an IP surveillance camera.

There are various lens calculators out there that will allow you to enter the details of a cameras lens and image sensor and it will give you ideas of the viewing area of a camera. Do you know what manufacturer you are looking at? Some manufacturers have lens calculators on their sites:

AXIS - http://www.axis.com/techsup/cam_servers/lens_calculators/index.htm
4XEM - http://www.4xem.com/support/tools/lenscalc.html

If you can provide a link to the camera you are looking and provide me with the details of how large of a viewing area you need, I can do the calculations and let you know if it works. I just have to find the formula for doing so
