Surveillance and video analytics: factors influencing the performance

report
Large European Union communities are working on and using surveillance systems. They are of diverse backgrounds, such as end users (e.g. law enforcement agencies and critical infrastructure owners), suppliers of surveillance products and services, academics and policymakers. One of the goals of the ERNCIP thematic group (TG) on video analytics and surveillance (VAS) is to support these communities and the interaction between them with a future proof performance evaluation methodology of video analytics, and in the future potentially also of other components of a surveillance system.
There are many factors which influence the performance of surveillance components, which is complicated as threats, vulnerabilities, assets, technologies and policies change over time. Therefore, a methodological approach is required to create common understanding among these communities regarding what these factors are and what the nature of their influence is on surveillance systems. This requires a substantial, dedicated effort during the full life cycle of surveillance systems.
