Surveillance and monitoring system
First Claim
1. A vehicle remote surveillance system, comprising:
- a plurality of components configured for mounting and operation in a vehicle, the plurality of components comprising;
a video recorder implemented on a video recording device with a processor;
a computing device having a processor, the computing device communicatively coupled with the video recorder;
a centralized surveillance system configured distal from the plurality of components, the centralized surveillance system communicatively coupled with at least one of the plurality of components configured for mounting in the vehicle;
wherein the centralized surveillance system compares data confirming whether a separate system that is not part of the plurality of components is operating in real-time in the vehicle with data confirming whether the vehicle remote surveillance system is operating in real-time in the vehicle.

Abstract
A method and system provides centralized redundant monitoring suitable for effectively recording and tracking video monitoring systems at a plurality of remote surveillance locations. The method and system are configured to track, monitor, capture, and record video originating from transportation vehicles using a novel technological configuration that minimizes overall and sub-system downtime relative to conventional technologies. The remote surveillance locations are capable of utilizing self-healing and recovery mechanisms and reporting status information to the centralized monitoring system. The centralized monitoring system can use information received from the remote surveillance locations to remotely monitor the status of the remote surveillance systems, to initiate remotely self-healing and recovery mechanisms, and request previously recorded surveillance data and live surveillance data in real time.
