Video analytics adoption: Key considerations for the end-user - Erncip Thematic Group Video Surveillance for security of critical infrastructure

cover
This report has been generated by the Erncip Thematic Group Video Surveillance for security of critical infrastructure (TG VAS). Video analytics is a technology that analyses the video content. The technology is increasingly being adopted by security managers, law enforcement and other users to address various security issues. This report outlines the basics of the technology, how it is used and its advantages. It aims to draw end-users attention to the key factors which must be taken into account when considering its adoption. It is aimed at managers, security personnel, law enforcement officers and other end-users whose knowledge of video analytics is limited. This report should help the end-user engage initially with potential providers of video analytics. General factors which affect video analytics are explored. For more in-depth analysis of factors affecting video analytics see Surveillance and video analytics: Factors Influencing the Performance. General comments are made in relation to video surveillance systems, however, for more in-depth CCTV deployment guides see Home Office. CCTV Operational Requirements Manual 2009. Note that this report does not aim to define what analytics can or cannot do, as this is a constantly evolving area. Nor does this report imply any recommendations by the authors or the European Commission.
