Abstract

This paper presents a complete visual surveillance system for the automatic scene interpretation of airport aprons. The system comprises two modules scene tracking and scene understanding. The scene tracking module, comprising a bottom-up methodology, and the scene understanding module, comprising a video event representation and recognition scheme, have been demonstrated to be a valid approach for apron monitoring.
