摘要

Disclosed herein are techniques for collecting information related to a crime or distress scene. An indication is received that a phone (“distressed phone”) has declared an emergency or distress event and a location of the distressed phone is also received. An additional set of phones, and their associated geographic locations, in vicinity of the distressed phone at a time that the distressed phone declared the emergency or distress event is determined. For each of the additional set of phones and the distressed phone, a number of cameras capable of tracking that phone is determined. For a phone from the additional set of phones and the distressed phone, video or image data related to a user of the phone is captured using at least one of the determined number of cameras capable of tracking that phone.
