Abstract

The first Video Analytics in Public Safety (VAPS) Workshop was held on Monday, June 6, 2016, in San Diego, CA as a satellite workshop of the Public Safety Communications Research (PSCR) Broadband Stakeholder Meeting, which was held on June 7-9. The workshop brought together diverse stakeholders interested in increasing the development, reliability, and adoption of video analytics to support the enormous and growing use of video in public safety while addressing critically important social considerations related to education and public trust. VAPS 2016 was organized by NIST and attended by members of the Federal Government, state and local governments, public safety video experts, industry researchers, academics, social and legal considerations experts, and international stakeholders.
