Paper Abstract
Nowadays, video surveillance cameras are used for the protection and monitoring of a huge number of facilities
worldwide. An important element in such surveillance systems is the use of aerial video streams originating from onboard
sensors located on Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs). Video surveillance using UAVs represent a vast amount of
video to be transmitted, stored, analyzed and visualized in a real-time way. As a result, the introduction and development
of systems able to handle huge amount of data become a necessity. In this paper, a new approach for the collection,
transmission and storage of aerial videos and metadata is introduced. The objective of this work is twofold. First, the
integration of the appropriate equipment in order to capture and transmit real-time video including metadata (i.e. position
coordinates, target) from the UAV to the ground and, second, the utilization of the ADITESS Versatile Media Content
Management System (VMCMS-GE) for storing of the video stream and the appropriate metadata. Beyond the storage,
VMCMS-GE provides other efficient management capabilities such as searching and processing of videos, along with
video transcoding. For the evaluation and demonstration of the proposed framework we execute a use case where the
surveillance of critical infrastructure and the detection of suspicious activities is performed. Collected video
Transcodingis subject of this evaluation as well.
