METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR VEHICLE SURVEILLANCE SERVICE IN MUNICIPAL ENVIRONMENTS

摘要

A set of cameras can operate in coordination for surveillance purposes to provide situation awareness at a system level. Any infrastructure of cameras, public or private, can incidentally view and record an individual's mobile property when in view of any of these cameras. A locating unit can determine the approximate location of a mobile property. A monitoring device that correlates to the mobile property's location can be selected. The transmission of surveillance information from the selected monitoring device can be provided to a user, such as via a transmission to the user's mobile device. Thus, the individual can have access to the monitoring device's viewing or recorded data to increase surveillance of mobile property.

1. An apparatus comprising:
a processor; and memory coupled to the processor, the memory comprising executable instructions that when executed by the processor cause the process to effectuate operations comprising:
initiating a comparison of a location of a mobile property to a plurality of surveillance regions to determine if the location of the mobile property correlates with at least one of the plurality of surveillance regions, wherein:
the plurality of surveillance regions comprises a triggering location region; andthe comparison is performed independent of the mobile property being detected in a surveillance region; andwhen at least one of the plurality of surveillance regions correlates to the location of the mobile property, receiving a feed from a monitoring device covering the correlating surveillance region.
