The present invention relates to the technical field of fire scene investigation, and specifically to a method for on-site positioning and restoration of a
fire point via a surveillance video. The method comprises the following steps: exporting a surveillance video into a video format recognizable by a PC, searching for characteristic frames, recording characteristic frames where flames or
smoke first appear, converting the frames into picture A, recording coordinates of the leftmost and rightmost pixels of the
flame, connecting the method to an on-site positioning device to collect
online video and read the video of a
surveillance camera, drawing an on-site position map, determining the closest and farthest possible distances between the
flame position at the fire scene and the camera, finding an on-site position corresponding to these coordinate points and marking it in a
plane map, and marking the range of the
fire point in the video, i.e., the range formed by the projection of all possible positions onto the ground. Compared with the prior art, the present invention calculates and exports the fire coordinate points in the original video, loads the video
signal of the
video camera at the same position at the scene into the device, locates the
fire point at the actual scene, and thus achieves high-precision positioning at the actual scene.
