Other Reports
Additionally, to counter reports, the user can obtain reports from other sources of data available such as
heatmaps, events, and tracks.
All the reporting utilities are grouped in the configuration page, under 'VCA > Reporting' the user will find:
• Counter reports (as seen)
• Heatmap reports
• Events reports
• Tracks reports
These other reporting facilities are described in the following sections.
Heatmap Reporting
The heatmap report page allows the user to retrieve heatmap images generated by the heatmap
algorithm. The heatmap image will show the relative crowd density inside the scene, measured during a
24-hour period, from 00:00 on the day before to 00:00 on the day that the heatmap image was requested
(the complete 24 hours of the previous day).
Enabling the Heatmap Service
Before heatmaps can be generated, the heatmap database service should be enabled under the
Database Service section.
Note: Since the heatmap image is generated using the data aggregated from the day before, the heatmap
data service should be enabled beforehand at latest on the day before the heatmap image is requested.
Generating Heatmap Images
There are 3 options when requesting a heatmap image:
• Output color image: When checked, the resulting heatmap will be a color image.
• Annotate heatmap on snapshot: When checked, the resulting heatmap will be superimposed
on top of the current snapshot.
• Heatmap image size: Choose the size of the image.
o Not applicable when the heatmap is annotated on the snapshot (the pre-configured
stream resolution is used instead).
