Thousands of traffic and safety monitoring cameras are deployed or are being deployed all across the country and throughout the world. These cameras serve a wide range of uses from monitoring building access to adjusting timing cycles of traffic lights at clogged intersections. Currently, these images are typically viewed on a wall of monitors in a traffic operations or security center where observers manually monitor potentially hazardous or congested conditions and notify the appropriate authorities. However, the proliferation of camera imagery taxes the ability of the manual observer to track and respond to all incidents. In addition, the images contain a wealth of information, including visibility, precipitation type, road conditions, camera outages, etc., that often goes unreported because these variables are not always critical or go undetected. Camera deployments continue to expand and the corresponding rapid increases in both the volume and complexity of camera imagery demand that automated algorithms be developed to condense the discernable information into a form that can be easily used operationally by users.
