Heat Map Getting Started

Getting Started

3VR’s Heat Map plug-in is a video analytics tool that provides unique traffic analysis capabilities to 3VR VMS. The plugin enables graphic overlay in the form of a heat map displaying the area and frequency of motion with a series of colors ranging between red and blue. Red, yellow, and orange as hot spot while blue and green indicate low traffic areas.

With the Heat Map plug-in installed and enabled, you will be able to generate heat maps in the 3VR VisionPoint Dashboard.

Heat Map analysis is possible with both analog and IP cameras at any resolution installed at a fixed angle. Heat Maps cannot be generated using PTZ cameras.

Field of View

The Heat Map plug-in should be installed on a camera with a wide field of view.
