Video Business Intelligence – Intelligent video analysis
Intelligent video analysis, a system based on a web platform
Business Intelligence, better known by its English term Business Intelligence (BI), is the set of applications, technologies and methodologies capable of gathering and transforming data into valuable and structured information to be used and analyzed directly. In this way, information is converted into valuable data for decision making.
BI makes it possible to visualize data in an easily interpretable form based on indicators represented with graphic resources.
The basic objective of BI is to continuously support organizations to improve their competitiveness by providing the necessary information for decision making.
How business intelligence is applied
Business Intelligence tools are software that collect and process a large amount of unstructured data, which can come from various sources of the video surveillance system: camera analytics, server analytics, and health indicators of the hardware elements of the system. They can also come from third party systems, unrelated to CCTV, but which are integrated with the latter: transaction data from POS, ATMs, databases with company business data, etc.
This BI software helps transform this data into more easily interpretable information, which can be turned into reports, dashboards, graphs, and other versions that facilitate analysis.
The benefits of Intelligent Video Analytics
– Save time and costs.
– Have better situational awareness.
– Achieve verified, transparent and reliable results.
– Improve the service offered to customers.
– New business opportunities.
When a decision-maker has to make a decision, he/she asks for or seeks information, which will help to reduce uncertainty. However, although everyone uses it, not all managers collect the same information; it depends on factors such as experience, training, availability, etc.
