View Identification Events

Once a face detected, you will see a notification in the event list.

A notification can feature different pieces of information, depending on whether a detected face has a match in the database:

  • Match not found: a normalized face image, detection date and time, the name of a camera group.
  • Match found: a normalized face image, the photo from a dossier, the name of a person, similarity between faces, the comment from a dossier, the name of a dossier list, detection date and time, the name of a camera group.

Note

You can configure the system in such a way that you will get notifications only for the faces with a match.
