Collection description
Overview:
CCTV traffic video data is a 2.65 TB dataset comprising multiple CCTV-like videos collected between 01/02/2022 and 19/03/2022 in the cities of Glasgow, Manchester, Sheffield, and Newcastle. In each city, efforts were made to locate sites and environments expected to yield high volumes of objects of interest across a range of contexts: Cyclists on a cycle path, cyclists on the road, pedestrianised streets, streets with pedestrians and vehicles, streets mostly with vehicles. A standard approach for image capture was established, with multiple cameras positioned at different locations on each site, to capture objects of interest from different perspectives. These included views designed to capture objects moving towards, away, from, and across the field of view of cameras. Following deployment, each camera recorded 14 consecutive hours of video, between 6am and 8pm. The videos were produced in RGB colour mode, with a spatial resolution of 1280 x 720 pixels and a frame rate of 25 frames per second. The video format used was MP4 with the codec MPEG-4 AVC/H.264. All cameras were pole-mounted at a height between 3 and 3.5 metres.
