A Liquidity Analysis System for Large-Scale Video Streams in the Oilfield

This article introduces LinkStream, a liquidity analysis system based on multiple video streams designed and implemented for oilfield. LinkStream combines a variety of technologies to solve several problems in computing power and network latency. First, the system adopts an edge-central architecture and tailoring based on spatio-temporal correlation, which greatly reduces computing power requirements and network costs, and enables real-time analysis of large-scale video stream on limited edge devices. Second, it designed a set of liquidity information to describe the liquidity status in the oilfield. Finally, it uses object tracking technology to design a counting algorithm for the unique tubing object in the oilfield. We have deployed LinkStream in an oilfield in Iraq. LinkStream can perform realtime inference on over 200 video streams with acceptable resource overhead.
