Surveillance systems
First Claim
1. A method for surveilling a site, the method comprisinglocating a first unit for surveillance at a site, the first unit including a first base, a first local archiver, and first surveillance apparatus on the base for surveilling the site with at least one first surveillance component,producing first surveillance signals with the at least one first surveillance component,transmitting the first surveillance signals from the at least one first surveillance component to the first local archiver,processing the first surveillance signals in the local archiver to produce a first record of the surveilling of the site, andmaking the first record available by remote access.

Abstract
Systems and methods are disclosed for surveillance including surveillance units which, in certain aspects, include a first unit for surveillance at a site, the first unit having a first base, a first local archiver, first surveillance apparatus on the base including at least one first surveillance component, the at least one first surveillance component for producing first surveillance signals, first transmitting apparatus for transmitting the first surveillance signals from the first surveillance component to the first local archiver, the local archiver including processing apparatus for processing the first surveillance signals to produce a first record of the surveilling of the site, and the local archiver including connection apparatus for making the first record available by remote access. This abstract is provided to comply with the rules requiring an abstract which will allow a searcher or other reader to quickly ascertain the subject matter of the technical disclosure and is submitted with the understanding that it will not be used to interpret or limit the scope or meaning of the claims, 37 C.F.R. 1.72(b).

23. A method for surveilling a site, the method comprising
locating a first unit for surveillance at a site, the first unit including a first base, a first local archiver, and first surveillance apparatus on the base for surveilling the site with at least one first surveillance component, producing first surveillance signals with the at least one first surveillance component, transmitting the first surveillance signals from the at least one first surveillance component to the first local archiver, processing the first surveillance signals in the local archiver to produce a first record of the surveilling of the site, making the first record available by remote access, locating a second unit for surveillance spaced-apart from the first unit, the second unit including a second base, a second local archiver, a second surveillance apparatus for surveilling an area adjacent the second unit and including at least one second surveillance component, said at least one second surveillance component for producing second surveillance signals, transmitting the second surveillance signals from the second unit to the second local archiver, processing the second surveillance signals from the second surveillance apparatus in the second local archiver to produce a second record of the surveillance of the area adjacent the second unit, and making the first record and the second record each available by remotely accessing a central server, the central server in communication with the first local archiver and with the second local archiver.
