Abstract
A method and system for real-time monitoring traffic in a predetermined location; the system comprising: an image capture unit arranged for capturing a pixel image of traffic in the predetermined location; a processor arranged for: identifying and classifying the or each object within the image via a neural network process using the pixel data to generate an object type; determining a location co-ordinate for the or each object type; linking the or each object with corresponding objects in subsequent or preceding frames; creating an array of object type and location co-ordinates over time; a communications unit arranged for communicating the array of object type and location co-ordinates with an end user; and a feedback unit arranged for producing a representation of the object type and location co-ordinates to enable the end user in use, to determine information relating to the traffic in the predetermined location.
