This paper presents the multi-camera tracking component of a complete surveillance system that was de- veloped as part of the AVITRACK project, involving 10 aca- demic and industrial partners. The aim of the project is to automatically recognise activities around a parked aircraft in an airport apron area to improve the efficiency, safety and security of the servicing operation. The multi-camera track- ing module takes as input per-camera tracking and recog- nition results and fuses these into object estimates using a common spatio-temporal co-ordinate frame. The multi- camera localisation and tracking of objects is evaluated for a range of test data.
