Monitoring system, monitoring apparatus, monitoring method and program therefor

摘要

A monitoring system being capable of monitoring an important monitoring region at low cost is provided. The monitoring system according to the present invention includes: a first image capturing section for capturing a moving image in a first monitoring region; a second image capturing section for capturing a moving image in a second monitoring region adjacent to the first monitoring region in synchronism with an image capturing operation by the first image capturing section in the first monitoring region; a composite image generating section for adjusting a position at which a first frame image constituting a moving image captured by the first image capturing section and a second frame image constituting a moving image captured by the second image capturing section are combined based on the relative positional relationship between the first monitoring region captured by the first image capturing section and the second monitoring region captured by the second image capturing section; and a moving image storage section for storing the composite image generated by the composite image generating section as the frame image constituting the moving image in a partial monitoring region including at least a part of the first monitoring region and the second monitoring region.
