Video Content Analytics: A Force Multiplier to Accelerate Investigations - American Security Today

Video surveillance has long been a necessary tool for law enforcement to keep communities safe and reduce crime. Yet sifting through hundreds of hours of footage can be time-consuming and slow down investigations. Video content analytics make this footage significantly more valuable by extracting, identifying and classifying video metadata, making the footage searchable, actionable and quantifiable. The ability to efficiently review, analyze, and respond to events captured by video surveillance has revolutionized law enforcement operations. Video analytics help these agencies accelerate investigations, attain situational awareness, and derive operational intelligence.
