ture range for the FLIR ONE PRO, emissivity (see 6.5.2 Emissivity), and location.

6.5 Using a thermal camera
6.5.1 Measurements
Measurements in thermal cameras show the temperature on the surface of an object.
The measurement accuracy depends on many factors, including the distance from the
object, the ambient temperature, and the emissivity of the material being observed.
Users are encouraged to learn more about the science of thermography from
www.infraredtraining.com.
6.5.2 Emissivity
When the spot meter is enabled, the temperature displayed is affected by many factors,
including a property of the target material known as emissivity. This property is a relative
rating of how well the target material emits or radiates thermal energy. Some materials
are more emissive than others; glossy or reflective materials such as metals tend to be
poor emitters. For most materials, the default "matte" setting is a fair approximation.
