Based on being on an NYC grand jury where we had to watch a fair amount of NYPD submitted surveillance footage: - NYPD uses PTZ, and the mount points aren't always fixed. They're also on poles which are connected to a mobile platform that is then deployed onto sidewalks / in parks etc. - Ability to track across multiple cameras exists today (this is intended to address density of cameras, not how tracking is done). However, there was no clear indication how automated this was. We were simply shown "Suspect on camera 1, and then you see them leave frame, and here they are on camera 2" - Faces could be seen fairly clearly even at night in a decently lit park setting. My gut feel was that as the hardware improves, 100% automated tracking of everyone is only a question of when.
