Abstract: The practice of monitoring public places, buildings, production halls etc. using monitoring cameras is frequently used nowadays. The invention proposes a monitoring system (1) for monitoring a monitoring area (2), having an input interface (5) for accepting monitoring images of the monitoring area (2), having a localization module (9) for locating at least one moving monitoring object (7) in the monitoring area (2), wherein the localization module (9) is designed to locate a position of the monitoring object (7), having a definition module (10) for defining a position-dependent protected area (6a, b, c) in the monitoring area (2), and having a monitoring module (13) for monitoring the protected area (2), wherein the definition module (10) is designed to define the position-dependent protected area (6a, b, c) on the basis of the position of the moving monitoring object (7).

Abstract: The invention relates to a method and device for locating persons (12, 14) in a prescribed area (10) monitored by at least one image acquisition device (3), wherein the image acquisition device (3) continuously generates images of the prescribed monitored area (10), said images being analyzed and evaluated by means of at least one image-processing method and/or image analysis method, and to a computer program product and data processing program. According to the invention, the generated images of the prescribed area (10) are analyzed and evaluated for detecting and locating persons (12, 14), wherein detected and located persons (12, 14) are classified and associated with at least one prescribed group, wherein the association with a group is performed depending on prescribed clothing features.
