Video Naming Convention

Retired page. This documents the legacy SiteTrax.io service portal, which has been replaced by SiteTrax.io Intelligence at app.sitetrax.io. It is kept for reference only and is no longer maintained. For current guidance, see the SiteTrax.io Intelligence shelf.

SiteTrax.io video files follow a structured naming convention that encodes information about the capture session. A typical filename looks like: s000_26-04-07_18-00-39-09_00059.mp4.

The first segment (e.g., s000, s001, s002) represents the segment number within a capture session. When a continuous scan produces multiple video segments, each is numbered sequentially. The date portion (e.g., 26-04-07) encodes the capture date in YY-MM-DD format. The time portion (e.g., 18-00-39-09) encodes the capture time. The session number (e.g., 00059) is a sequential identifier for the capture session.

Some videos may use a different naming format without the segment prefix (e.g., 26-04-07_17-50-42-93_00084.mp4), which typically represents a single capture from a stationary or gate-mounted camera.
