Method and apparatus for vehicle surveillance service in municipal environments
First Claim
1. A device comprising:
- a receiver configured to;
receive a signal indicative of a location of a mobile property, the signal being indicative of being provided by equipment of the mobile property; and
receive surveillance information from at least one selected monitoring device;
a processor configured to perform operations comprising;
comparing the location of the mobile property to a plurality of surveillance regions to determine if the location of the mobile property correlates with at least one of the plurality of surveillance regions, wherein;
the plurality of surveillance regions comprises a triggering location region;
each surveillance region of the plurality of surveillance regions is associated with a respective monitoring device; and
the comparing is performed independent of the mobile property being detected by a monitoring device;
for each surveillance region of the plurality of surveillance regions that correlates with the location of the mobile property, selecting each respective monitoring device for transmitting surveillance information associated with each respective surveillance region; and
a transmitter that transmits surveillance information received from each 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.
