Georeferenced or geotagged video has an associated geographical element, for example a route. Georeferenced video gives you the benefit of being able to see the exact location a video frame was taken as well as the date and time. Having this additional data can be beneficial in identifying asset locations, evidence of changes, works completed or simply as a survey history. RouteShoot’s georeferenced video content management system allows you to catalog and search your video files spatially, allowing you to find a particular video quickly and easily.

Machine Learning refers to computer algorithms that learn through experience. In much the same way as a human brain works, machine learning improves through experience. Broadly speaking the more it learns the better it will become at making predictions. Object detection is a specific type of Machine Learning that uses images to train the models. Objects such as signs, cars and road markings etc are categorised in a series of training images and used as a training set to build a detection model. RouteShoot uses these models to process videos.

How accurate a model is depends on a number of factors; how many images in the training data, how well are the objects classified in these images, how long was the model trained for etc. No model will ever be 100% accurate but in many cases it may well be more accurate than a person classifying the same data set. However, RouteShoot uses an innovative approach to ensure the quality of the data.

Our customers have collected many thousands of route based videos over the years. In most cases these videos have been used for tracking network condition and defects. Whilst this data is extremely useful as a visual record in its own right, we thought it would be a great idea to make even more use of it. The vast majority of our customers have struggled with the quality of highway asset records so we took the opportunity to build Machine Learning tools into RouteShoot to solve this problem. Using ML together with these large libraries of video data is an obvious next step for RouteShoot.

No problem! We can produce bespoke models to suit your needs and can typically have a detection model up and running in only a few days. Please do contact us with your requirements so we can discuss how we can help you.
