SYSTEM AND METHOD OF VIRTUAL ZONE BASED CAMERA PARAMETER UPDATES IN VIDEO SURVEILLANCE SYSTEMS

摘要

A method and system that includes a processor of a surveillance system detecting identification of a portion of a secured area via a drawing made by an operator on a graphical representation of the secured area, the processor identifying at least one camera within the identified portion of the secured area, the processor increasing a relative level of picture quality for each of the at least one camera and the processor recording video with the increased level of picture quality from each of the identified at least one camera for a predetermined time period where the picture quality is increased by performing one or more of increasing image resolution, increasing frames per second, decreasing a group of pictures (GOP) value, decreasing a compression ratio and increasing a bit rate.
