FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Does B-PLAN tell me which camera to buy?

No. B-PLAN delivers a neutral requirement — resolution, HFOV, ONVIF Profile T, shutter, IR — any supplier can answer. The model catalogue only validates the choice; it is never an input to the calculation.

Which standards does it use?

IEC/EN 62676-4:2014, with the DORI classification framework, and IEC/EN 62676-4:2025, with the OODPCVS framework — always in parallel. DORI and OODPCVS are not separate standards: they are the classification frameworks of each edition of the same standard. The report declares which was applied and one is never silently converted into the other.

Why not use manufacturers’ DORI figures?

14 published/calculated pairs were compared: several manufacturers publish figures inflated by 1.37×–1.69× at wide angle. B-PLAN always calculates.

Do my projects stay if the licence expires?

Yes. They stay saved and visible in read-only mode; you cannot edit until you renew.

How does payment work?

By Multibanco reference, MB WAY or card, via EuPago. The licence activates instantly, no manual approval.

Where is my data stored?

In the EU (server in Stockholm, database in the EU). See the Security & GDPR page.
