Abstract
A surveillance system is disclosed that includes one or more data acquisition devices, an image database, and a processing system. The data acquisition devices are configured to acquire surveillance data from one or more geographic locations, and the image database stores image data for the one or more geographic locations. The processing system is configured to electronically display an image of one or more of the geographic locations using the image data stored in the image database. The processing system is further configured to accept input through a user interface to allow graphical manipulation of the displayed image in three-dimensional space to select a view of the geographical location that is to be subject to surveillance by the data acquisition devices. The displayed image selected by the user is employed to generate acquisition parameters for controlling the one or more data acquisition devices to surveil the geographical location corresponding to the displayed image.
