A Blockchain Implementation for the Cataloguing of CCTV Video Evidence
Open accessAbstract
Presented here is a functional implementation of Distributed Ledger Technology applied to the task of cataloguing CCTV video evidence. We describe and demonstrate a prototype camera that participates in blockchain creation in real time, and the system designed to manage and coordinate its distribution and use. This application is of specific interest to law enforcement agencies charged with the management of high volumes of CCTV evidence. We discuss applicability and scalability with reference to simulation results and real-world testing. The combination of blockchain technology with a novel digital watermarking application is demonstrated here providing immediate benefit against an existing real-world problem of trustworthy evidence protection in distributed network environments.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
