Abstract

A surveillance video system may include a surveillance image database storing a sequence of surveillance image files for a common area having geospatial metadata associated therewith. A processor may cooperate with the surveillance image database and configured to transcode the surveillance image files into a sequence of surveillance video frames retaining the geospatial metadata. The processor may also be configured to assemble a surveillance video transport stream from the sequence of surveillance video frames retaining the geospatial metadata, and to selectively deliver the surveillance video transport stream retaining the geospatial metadata to at least one surveillance video user.
