09. Identification Using CCTV

One of the biggest issues in the design and usage of any Closed Circuit Television System is the usable images or video footage that one can utilise during or after an event.

There are obviously several factors that come into play when determining this. Factors include quality of installation, video recording resolution, frame rate, environmental conditions, CCD resolution and sensitivity. When designing a CCTV system it is important to have focused cameras at all entry and exit points. Any individuals or vehicles will need to pass through these points to access or exit the area under surveillance. All CCTV camera positions have an application or role. These include monitoring and detection, as well as recognition and identification.
