Video Naming Conventions and File Structure
Each collection of frames is referred to as a Take. Each Take is usually representative of a set of frames collected (by all cameras) sequentially during a single capture pass. The files associated with each Take are placed into the following folder structure:
.\yyyymmdd\hhmm\A_yyyymmdd_hhmm_c<cam_id>.avi
.\yyyymmdd\hhmm\A_yyyymmdd_hhmm_take.loc
.\yyyymmdd\hhmm\A_yyyymmdd_hhmm_take.syn
Where:
yyyymmdd
is the date of capture in year month day format
hhmm
is the time of capture in hours minutes format
cam_id
is a two digit camera id
.avi
is the video imagery container for the take
.loc
is the location data file
.syn
