At Lund University an automated video analysis system is being developed that can be applied for studying the behaviour of road users in complex traffic environments. It is stressed that system must be capable of handlingall the categories of road users, i.e. vehicles, pedestrians and cyclists. Common problems like detection and tracking of moving objects, occlusionby foreground objects, ground-plane co-ordinates estimation, smoothing ofthe scattered data and estimation of speed and acceleration profiles are discussed and a solution proposed. For the covering abstract see E134653.
