1. A computer implemented method for identifying positional data for an object in motion, the computer implemented method comprising:

  • retrieving location data a set of cameras associated with the object, wherein the location data identifies a location of each camera in the set of cameras within the area of interest, and wherein the object is within an image capture range of the each camera in the set of cameras;

    analyzing metadata associated with the object using triangulation analytics and the location data for the set of cameras to identify a location of the object at a point in time, wherein the metadata describes events in video data captured by the set of cameras, and wherein the metadata is generated automatically in real time as the video data is captured by the set of cameras; and

    identifying the positional data for the object based on locations of the object over a given time interval, wherein the positional data describes motion of the object.
