The method for evaluating the coverage rate of roadside monitoring cameras in road areas

Abstract

Accurately assessing the coverage rate of roadside monitoring cameras in road areas is crucial for intelligent transportation systems and road risk assessment. This paper presents a new method that uses Carsim software to simulate different camera tilt angles and road geometry conditions to evaluate the coverage area of roadside monitoring cameras. By adjusting the camera tilt angles and the curve radius of the road, the coverage effect under different conditions is analyzed, and affine transformation is used to calculate the actual coverage area. The research results show that this method can effectively fit the road area, providing theoretical support for the deployment of monitoring cameras in traffic.
