It is often argued that CCTV systems used in security contexts are not exploited to their full potential.This paper reports on the developments undenvay as part of the EU PRISMATICA project to enhance CCTV systems to provide more extensive surveillance of public transport networks.Firstly, it outlines the techniques of automatic detection applied to CCTV images to identify suspect events, such as abnormal stationarity, intrusion, overcrowding and abnonnal movement.Secondly, it examines issues related to the development and deployment of these technologies into transport security control centres.
