Abstract

A digital video alarm temporal monitoring computer system includes a digital video analytics server including a digital video analytics computer. The digital video analytics computer has non-transitory memory configured to store machine instructions that are to be executed by the digital video analytics computer. The machine instructions when executed by the computer implement the following functions: receiving a temporal digital video alarm monitoring parameter; receiving identifying data indicative of digital video data from a transmitting network camera; determining a digital video alarm monitoring status in response to the temporal digital video alarm monitoring parameter and the identifying data; and transmitting or analyzing the digital video in response to the digital video alarm monitoring status being the active status. The digital video alarm monitoring status includes an active status and an inactive status.
