1. A method for calibrating a surveillance camera (3), in which the surveillance camera (3) depicts a real surveillance scene which may be described using world coordinates (4), on a surveillance picture (7) which may be described using picture coordinates (4),and at least one trajectory (9) of a moving object (2) in the surveillance scene is determined, the surveillance scene comprising a set of position data (10) which describes the position of the moving object (2) using picture coordinates (4) as a function of time, andthe trajectory (9) is used to calibrate the surveillance camera (3) by using a movement model for the moving object (2) to convert the time-dependent position data (10) for the moving object into distances in the real surveillance scene.
