Multimedia Tools and Applications Aims and scope Submit manuscript

Abstract

There have been a number of new technologies and applications that can track various events and activities in a variety of environments. Software Defined Networking (SDN) is one of these technologies that has the ability to bring the unanticipated changes in the networking space. SDN aids in the implementation and management of new networks, lowering associated expenses. SDN’s unique characteristics make it ideal for monitoring the harsh environmental conditions. Agriculture, Military, Industry, Natural disasters, Health monitoring, Crisis response, and Emergency management are just few examples of common applications. In the last few decades, some of these applications have been of critical relevance and the subject of ongoing research. SDN becomes increasingly popular owing to its perfect benefits, which include aid in various surveillance scenarios. Thus, this survey covers several areas of surveillance and assists the readers to have a better grasp of SDN-based surveillance. Furthermore, various open research problems and the related surveillance challenges have also been explored.
