Configuration of a camera in immersion mode

To align a video from a camera with a map, connection points are used. They connect identical objects in the video and on the map.

To configure video in immersion mode:

1. Go to the map edit mode.
2. Go to immersion mode.
3. Left-click the video image to add connection points. You must add at least six connection points. To delete a connection point, hover the cursor over it and click the Image Added button. The calibration is recalculated if you delete a point. After you add all connection points, you can adjust their positions by dragging them with the left mouse button pressed. To reset all connection points, click the Cancel changes Image Added button.
   

   Note
   title Attention!
   When you set a point on the video, the following rules must be met: All connection points must lie on the same horizontal plane. We recommend placing the points on the floor or on the ground. We don't recommend placing three points in a straight line. The points must demonstrate the perspective of the plane. When you set the sixth point, it is possible that the second connection point cannot be placed in certain locations. This happens because the system cannot determine the correct viewing angle to display the video and the map with the set connection points. Most likely, you set the connection points incorrectly.

4. If calibration is available, the Apply calibration Image Added button appears after you add a sixth point (or more), allowing you to calibrate the connection points on the map.

   title Attention!
   The specified connection points are reset if you perform any of the following actions before you save the changes and exit: If you change the place of the camera's icon on the map. If you change the angle of the display area on the map. If you change the camera's field of view on the map. After you update from previous versions to Axxon One 3.0/3.1 or higher, the connection points used to link the camera to the map are reset. You must set the connection points again.

Configuration of cameras with an embedded GPS tracker

Some devices have an embedded GPS tracker that sends the current coordinates of the device to Axxon One. This feature is used for cameras installed on mobile objects—such as ambulances or public transport—enabling their position on the map to update automatically.

To configure this feature:

1. Create an embedded GPS tracker (see Configuration of detectors and their sub-detectors).

2. Create a map (see Add a map).
3. Add cameras to the map (seeAdd cameras to the map).

Floors

Floors are used to organize multi-level objects on the map and allow you to combine floor plans from different levels of a building into a single map.

Add a floor

You can add a floor in two ways:

1. Add a new floor to the map:
   1. Go to the map edit mode.
   2. Select a map to which you want to add a floor.
   3. Right-click and select Add floor to map.
   4. Configure the settings listed in the table.
   5. Click the Apply Image Added button. To cancel actions, click the Cancel Image Added button.
      If necessary, repeat the steps, adding a new floor to the last created floor.
      A floor is added.
      Image Added
2. Add a map as a floor:
   

   Note
   title Attention!
   When you add floors, note the following: You can add a map as a floor only if the map doesn't have any lower-level floors of its own. In other words, the map that you want to add must not contain nested floors. You can add a floor to a map only if that map isn't a floor of another map—meaning it must not have a parent floor. If both maps are already part of different floor hierarchies, those hierarchies cannot be merged. Only a map that is not linked to another hierarchy can be added as a floor. If any of the listed conditions isn't met, the Add as child map option doesn't appear in the context menu. Maps that you can get from map providers cannot be used as floors or included in a floor hierarchy.

   
   
   1. Go to the map edit mode.
   2. Select a map you want to add as a floor.
   3. Right-click and select Add as child map.
   4. Select the map to which you want to add a map as a floor.
   5. Click the Apply Image Added button. To cancel actions, click the Cancel Image Added button.

Adjust floor placement

To adjust floor placement:

1. Go to the map edit mode.

3. To rotate or resize the floor image, click the Rotate/Resize Image Added button and, while holding it down, rotate or resize the image.
4. Click the Save Image Added button. To cancel actions, click the Cancel Image Added button.

The floor placement is adjusted.

Edit a floor
