Out of a video clip with punishable KKK group walking on the street I am wondering how by your expertise within Police you would bring out exactly the body height of the members in cm? Has anybody a fast method of measuring or calculating the body heights?

This is video forensics and I am wondering too what professional tool would you use.

I believe Amped ( https://ampedsoftware.com/) is one of the leader in terms of video and audio Forensics. I am no means an expert in this field but you not find an object or something similar that you can 100% know the size of, IE a lamp post, car model etc and from there you have a basis and guideline and can make estimates from that?

Amped Five offers a solution for this.

You would require a site visit to measure known items, such as door frames, floor tile width etc etc. Read the article above for an insight.

BTW Amped has just released a new cheaper version Amped Replay, which does not have all the bells and whistles.

The challenge you have with that video is that they are all wearing the 'cone hats' so you cannot get a measurement from the ground to the top of the heads.

I would also try focusing on their shoes (shoe size, make and model, unique features and the hands for any tattoos.

The position of taking this smartphone video was on

6430 Schwyz, Hinterdorfstrasse 19 and coordinates from Google Maps 47.020664, 8.658756

6430 stands for PLZ Post Leit Zahl aka ZIP in the U.S.

https://www.google.ch/maps/@47.0206252,8.6587756,3a,60y,67.93h,74.56t/data=!3m6!1e1!3m4!1sFOegkzYDLUgM_MWDDNgHsQ!2e0!7i13312!8i6656

Is there a method of getting out of street view more information or e.g. a *.kml to measure out of Google Earth Street View?

Out of todays IMID In Motion IDentification video analytics the "walking-bones-view" I saw in the past. Is it possible to identify between males and females in walking patterns?

Another source shows a picture of the 10 members, lets assume the person making the full nazi salute is No1 and counting clockwise up to No10 can a correlation being made to the video related to numbering?

Except from tech tools my boss always says 'sharpen your eyes'. Is it possible to identify the leader in this pic? If yes, what is your indicator?

The extended group by 12 members. 2 people were not joining the 'walking group'. Which 2 are missing?

Behind the group is a car parked. Any chance to find out the model?

In this picture the background light translucent shines through the caps. This would help to reverse calculate the peak head point of the caps.
