Abstract
Official abstract text for this publication.
Video surveillance systems are used to monitor public places, streets, buildings, cities and other premises or surroundings and comprise a multitude of cameras which are monitoring relevant points in the surroundings. One of the problems of surveillance systems is, that the multitude of cameras produce a large amount of video data to be monitored, which requires a lot of human observers resulting in high personnel costs. A video retrieval system ( 1 ) connectable to a plurality of surveillance cameras ( 2 ) for monitoring a surroundings is proposed, the video retrieval system ( 1 ) comprising: displaying means ( 12 ) realized to display a graphical overall description ( 100, 130, 140 ) of the surroundings under surveillance, whereby the graphical overall description ( 100, 130, 140 ) comprises a plurality of monitored areas ( 110 ), whereby the areas are allocated to different surveillance cameras ( 2 ) and whereby the graphical overall description ( 100, 130, 140 ) is displayed in a single perspective view, and querying means ( 10 ) realized to formulate a trajectory-specific search ( 150, 160 ) query adapted to retrieve data about a moving object in the surroundings with a matching trajectory.
