1. A monitoring apparatus comprising:
- a video data obtaining section for obtaining video data from a monitoring terminal;
a metadata obtaining section for obtaining from the monitoring terminal, metadata describing information on a monitored subject, the information comprising details of one or more interactions with a user interface performed by the monitored subject;
a filter setting storage section for storing a filter setting;
a metadata filter section for performing filtering processing on the metadata by using a filter setting stored in the filter setting storage section; and
an output section for outputting a monitoring result based on the filtering processing result obtained by performing filtering processing in the metadata filter section, wherein the output section is further configured to output a picture based on the synthesis of a picture generated from video data obtained by the video data obtaining section, a picture generated from the metadata obtained by the metadata obtaining section, and a picture generated from the filter setting used by the metadata filter section, the monitoring result including a picture having an image section of video data corresponding to the filtering processing result, an image section about at least a part of a criteria of the filtering processing, and an image section about the metadata relating to the monitored subject in the image section of video data corresponding to the filtering processing result, the metadata describing the one or more interactions with the user interface performed by the monitored subject, and obtained by the metadata obtaining section.

7. A monitoring method comprising the steps of:
-
obtaining video data; obtaining metadata describing information on a monitored subject, the information comprising details of one or more interactions with a user interface performed by the monitored subject; performing filtering processing on the metadata by using a filter setting; and outputting a monitoring result based on the filtering processing result obtained by performing filtering processing, outputting a picture based on the synthesis of a picture generated from video data obtained by the video data obtaining section, a picture generated from the metadata obtained by the metadata obtaining section, and a picture generated from the filter setting used by the metadata filter section, the monitoring result including a picture having an image section of video data corresponding to the filtering processing result, an image section about at least a part of a criteria of the filtering processing, an image section about the metadata relating to the monitored subject in the image section of video data corresponding to the filtering processing result, the metadata describing the one or more interactions with the user interface performed by the monitored subject.
