Abstract
A system for automatically identifying situations to withhold planogram incompliance notifications in a retail store is disclosed. The system has a processor that receives image data depicting products displayed on a store shelf from image sensors mounted in the retail store. The processor identifies a product type associated with the displayed products and determines a placement of products of that product type on the shelf. The processor accesses a planogram describing a desired placement of products and identifies, based on the planogram, a discrepancy between the determined placement of products and the desired placement of product. The processor determines whether a notice-override condition exists. If a notice-override condition exists, the processor, withholds issuance of a user-notification associated with the identified discrepancy. If a notice-override condition does not exist, the processor issues the user-notification associated with the identified discrepancy.
