Optimally locating surveillance assets in urban areas
Authors: Javier Salmeron, Kevin Wood
Abstract
This paper develops mathematical-programming models for optimal placement of tower-mounted surveillance systems such as BETSS-C (Base Expeditionary Targeting and Surveillance Systems-Combined). A solution maximizes the ?value? that a set of tower- mounted cameras has in covering pre-defined ?points of interest? on the ground. Near-optimal solutions for problems with up to 20 towers, 30 candidate locations for those towers and 100 points of interest are produced on laptop computer in under five minutes.
