5.1.1.4.5: Analyze Traveler Image

This process shall request and monitor video images received from another process against a database of known images that may represent criminals and terrorists. This data is collected in secure areas, including those frequented by travelers (transit stops, rest areas, park and ride lots, modal interchange facilities, on-board transit vehicles, etc.), and those typically away from travelers (tunnels, bridges, roadway infrastructure, etc.). Surveillance video image data will also be collected from other emergency centers and the process shall return a confirmation that an image match was found or not to those centers. In addition to video inputs, this process shall also receive data preprocessed in the field, and provide additional processing if directed by processing parameters established by center personnel. The process shall analyze video images received against a database of known images, and return a potential confirmation that a match was found or not to the Alert and Advisory System. This system will then perform further analysis and return actual confirmation to this process that a match was found or not. This process shall then output identified images to other processes for output to emergency system personnel and to support further threat analysis.
