Enhancing scene understanding
AXIS Scene Metadata describes and organizes scene details for quicker access to insights, facilitating automated actions, informed decision-making, efficient search, and predictions. Allowing cameras to comprehend the events unfolding in a scene can bring substantial benefits across various industries, enhancing our lives and making the world safer and smarter. Processing at the edge streamlines operations, reduces server needs, and enhances data analysis and management.
Simplify your work with AXIS Scene Metadata
AXIS Scene Metadata includes object types (e.g., human or vehicle) along with specifics like clothing and vehicle color, license plates, speed, location, and timestamp. AI-powered analysis enables filtering of the metadata, event triggering, and detailed scene examination. Real-time and forensic searches can be performed effortlessly to deliver refined results using search parameters. Metadata overlays highlight crucial details, enabling informed decision-making and accelerating investigations.
Powered by top image quality and advanced analysis
AXIS Scene Metadata is fuelled by Axis Scene Intelligence, a blend of technologies that enhances scene understanding by combining superior image quality and deep learning to extract crucial details from the scene.
Open interface for even greater possibilities
With comprehensive scene details, AXIS Scene Metadata facilitates efficient object and incident searches. AI-based analysis emphasizes critical details for informed decisions and resource optimization. Exceptional image quality from Axis cameras and Scene Intelligence delivers precise metadata to your VMS or visualization platform, cutting costs and improving operations. Seamless third-party integration allows customization, and ONVIF Profile M compliance ensure standardized streaming. In summary, AXIS Scene Metadata offers seamless integration, heightened situational awareness, and tailored insights.
Added value across user segments
Metadata enhances scene understanding for multiple users.
1. Edge applications: Cameras with embedded analytics process data at the edge, applying filters and rules to object information to trigger actions when certain behaviors or thresholds are present.
2. Video Management Systems (VMS): Video Management Systems (VMS) utilize metadata for object searches based on characteristics like color and shape, reducing manual review. Our integrations, such as AXIS Optimizer for Milestone XProtect® and AXIS Forensic Search for Genetec, generate metadata from Axis AI-powered cameras and transmit both metadata and video streams to the VMS.
3. IoT platforms: Analyzes aggregated data to derive actionable insights, improving understanding and predictive capabilities.
4. Second-layer analytics: Advanced systems combine edge and server-based processing, with cameras performing initial processing and streaming only relevant metadata to servers.
