Integrated Surveillance of Crowded Areas for Public Security

Welcome to the Integrated Surveillance of Crowded Areas for Public Security (ISCAPS) project website. ISCAPS is funded under the first call for proposals for the Preparatory Action on the Enhancement of the European Industrial Potential in the Field of Security Research (PASR 2004). The main goal of ISCAPS is to reinforce security for the European citizen and to downsize the terrorist threat by reducing the risks of malicious events. This will be undertaken by providing efficient, real-time, user-friendly, highly automated surveillance of crowded areas which are significantly exposed to terrorist attacks.

Through a two year approach, the objectives of the project are to promote technological surveillance research guided by a system approach in order to bring the research to maturity and to validate it in existing sites. Further information about ISCAPS...
