Abstract
This paper presents some of the results of a UK government research program into methods of improving the effectiveness of CCTV surveillance systems.

A method is outline for relating the picture detail limitations imposed by each system component on overall system performance. The paper also points out some possible difficulties arising from the use of emerging new technology.
