EVALUATION AND USE OF PUBLIC VIDEO CAMERAS PARAMETERS FOR ROAD TRAFFIC SURVEILLANCE
To collect reliable data about road traffic, it is essential to consider the parameters of video cameras, their location, and other characteristics which are not directly accessible. This paper presents computer technology used for processing the video stream which allows removing the perspective and radial distortions. It enhances the detection of different types of vehicles, raises the accuracy of traffic density and speed measurements estimation.
