One of the key advantages of CCTV Software is the ability to create a live journal for each IP camera. This means that users can view live footage from each camera, as well as review recorded footage from the same interface. This makes it easy to keep track of multiple cameras, even if they are located in different parts of the building or property.
If a security personnel is responsible for observing hundreds of cameras, and there is frequent movement within the frame, intelligent detection becomes vital. Showing hundreds of feeds on a single screen will dilute the effectiveness of human observation. Using software to pinpoint only the significant movements or activities can drastically reduce the number of cameras an observer needs to focus on.
