Abstract
We describe how video data can be organized and structured so as to fa cilitate efficient querying. We develop a formal model for video data and show how spatial data structures, suitably modified, provide an el egant way of storing such data. We develop algorithms to process vario us kinds of video queries and show that, in most cases, the complexity of these algorithms is linear. A prototype system, called the Advance d Video Information System (AVIS), based on these concepts, has been d esigned at the University of Maryland.
