How to Collect and Submit Video to Autoscope Analytics
Process
Important Considerations
Camera Requirements:
Resolution: The video must be recorded at 640x480 pixels or better resolution.
Frame Rate: The recording frame rate must be a minimum of 20 frames per second (fps).
Selecting Location(s):
Ensure this location has adequate visibility of the area you want to monitor, including all vehicle, pedestrian, and bicycle activity.
Camera Mounting:
Height: Mount the camera at least 12 feet high. Generally, higher is better, with 18 feet being ideal if achievable.
Coverage: The detection coverage varies with camera lens characteristics. Typically, you can expect to detect up to 200 feet from the camera.
Stability: Ensure the camera is securely positioned to cover the desired area and remains stable. Avoid obstructions that might block the view.
Sample submission:
If you have any concerns about whether your camera is suitable for video collection, feel free to submit a sample video, and we'll be happy to help you determine this.

Aiming the Camera:
Please contact Image Sensing Systems at info@imagesensing.com for assistance on aiming the camera.
Organizing Video for Upload
If your submission includes video from multiple locations, organize video(s) from each location into a separate folder.
Ensure that video files have timestamps embedded within their title:
Complete the location details form for each location and place with video files within the location folder.
Once all the video files are organized, create a zip folder with all the location folders.
