Assignee: SELEX ES INC.
Field: Computer technology (Electrical engineering)
Classification: CPC G | IPC G

Claim 9:
10. A surveillance system, comprising:
a plurality of collection systems located within a selected geographic area, each comprising a series of sensors configured to capture in real-time fa) information related to visual identifiers of a plurality of targets, (b) electronic signatures associated with one or more targets of the plurality of targets, or (c) a combination of visual identifiers and electronic signatures, wherein the electronic signatures are based on electronic signals emanating from one or more types of electronic devices associated with each of the plurality of targets; and
an intelligence system in communication with the plurality of collection systems, and including one or more classification and search engines;
wherein the intelligence system is configured to:
receive, from the plurality of collection systems, the information related to the visual identifiers and the electronic signatures,
determine a relationship between one or more of the plurality of targets and at least one electronic signature of the electronic signatures captured by the plurality of collection systems using the one or more classification and search engines;
wherein the one or more classification and search engines are configured to determine the relationship based on a correlation of a frequency of capture of one or more of the visual identifiers and the one or more electronic signatures and a selected proximity of capture between the plurality of visual identifiers and the one or more identified electronic signatures, and
identify target of interest from the plurality of targets based on a determined relationship between the target of interest and the at least one electronic signature.
