Problems solved by technology

[0010] However, for this purpose, it will become such a job, that is, to observe the images captured by the camera at point A for a certain period of time and concentrate, and memorize the faces of all the people captured, and then observe the images captured by the camera at point B, and Finding the same person becomes very difficult and requires patience
In addition, it is not necessarily possible to correctly search for the person, and it takes a long time and inefficient work

Abstract

Aimed is to extract persons present on a plurality of spots by designating a plurality of spots as the installation places of imaging apparatuses. A plurality of the imaging apparatuses 1 are installed so as to be fixed in different places. The imaging apparatus 1 generates featured data of persons included in picked-up image data. Then, a featured data unit including the featured data, camera ID and image picked-up date information is generated, and the data unit is transmitted to a data storage server 3. The data storage server 3 registers and stores the featured data unit transmitted from each imaging apparatus 1 in a database. A retrieval processor 4 lists the persons satisfying conditions from the database.
