  1. Three-Dimensionalizing Surveillance Networks James Elder, Project Leader York University

  2. The challenge • To use persistent visual surveillance data to maintain and improve the security and efficiency of our urban centres in the face of rapid growth and increasing complexity

  3. Current obstacles • Most surveillance data are ignored due to lack of adequate manpower and reliable visual algorithms. • Persistent visual surveillance systems are poorly integrated with other forms of geospatial information • Surveillance cams compress the 3D scene into 2D, making inference difficult

  4. 8 monitors 2 vigilant undergraduates 400 cameras Example (real, but anonymous public institution) What if something happens?

  5. What if something happens?

  9. Goals • Automatic, efficient, scaleable methods for extraction and integration of 2D and 3D urban data at street level • Surveillance video, UAV photogrammetry, airborne & terrestrial LIDAR… • Automatic inference of 3D scene properties • Scene segmentation, building characteristics, foliage modeling • Automatic inference of 3Dscene dynamics • Human and pedestrian traffic • Integrated reporting and 3D visualization • For efficient human interpretation • Integration into distributed software architecture • CAE S-Mission architecture

  10. Scientific Questions • There are many, e.g., • How can 3D urban scene information be reliably extracted from single-view video? • How can individuals be discriminated in crowds? • How can free-form structures (e.g., trees) be reliably segmented from the scene? • How can multiple forms of geolocation data (GPS, inertial, visual) be integrated to optimize positioning?

  11. Applications • Public and private security • Urban planning • Business analytics
