APPARATUS FOR VEHICLE SERVILLANCE SERVICE IN MUNICIPAL ENVIRONMENTS
First Claim
1. A device for transmitting information associated with a surveillance region, the device comprising:
- a receiver configured to receive a signal indicative of an approximate location of a mobile property as transmitted by the mobile property;
a processor comprising;
a comparison module configured to compare the approximate location of the mobile property to the surveillance region, wherein the surveillance region is associated with a monitoring device;
a selection module configured to select the monitoring device for transmitting the information associated with the surveillance region, wherein the monitoring device is selected if the surveillance region associated with the monitoring device correlates to the approximate location of the mobile property; and
a transmitter configured to transmit the information from the selected monitoring device.

Abstract
A set of cameras can operate in coordination for surveillance purposes to provide situation awareness at a system level. Any infrastructure of cameras, public or private, can incidentally view and record an individual'"'"'s mobile property when in view of any of these cameras. A locating unit can determine the approximate location of a mobile property. A monitoring device that correlates to the mobile property'"'"'s location can be selected. The transmission of surveillance information from the selected monitoring device can be provided to a user, such as via a transmission to the user'"'"'s mobile device. Thus, the individual can have access to the monitoring device'"'"'s viewing or recorded data to increase surveillance of mobile property.
