Abstract

A method for managing a surveillance system includes at least one camera equipped with capability of capturing direction adjustment, such as a Pan-Tilt-Zoom (PTZ) camera. The method includes the steps of: outputting a panoramic map to a display module of the surveillance system for being displayed on the display module; according to at least one user input of a user of the surveillance system, labeling a target patrol route of the surveillance system on the panoramic map correspondingly for the user to confirm the target patrol route; and applying at least one configuration corresponding to the target patrol route to the camera to cause capturing direction adjustment operations of the camera to correspond to the target patrol route. The panoramic map may include at least one multi-directional combination picture corresponding to the camera.
