Event Activity

Event Activity, under Monitoring in the navigation, is the basic list view of all captured events and activity.

​

Before You Start

• Naming note: Worlds is partway through migrating from a legacy “event” system to a new Chronicle system, which will eventually distinguish between Activity, Event, and Summary type records. Right now, all captured data is mirrored across both systems, and this page (despite being named Event Activity) is currently displaying Activity-type Chronicles, the same underlying data as the legacy event system. Expect this to evolve as that distinction becomes more visible in the UI.
• Available to every role, but Users and Managers only see data for sites they have permission to.
• Key concept: an “activity” is the output of a workflow. A workflow evaluates Worlds’ inference data, decides what and when to log, then publishes that activity back into Worlds, where it shows up here and elsewhere in Monitoring.

​

Working the List

Event Activity uses a two-panel layout: activities on the left, and the detail for whatever you’ve selected on the right. You can work down the list without navigating away or losing your place.

• Live (top right) - when on, new activity appears at the top of the list as it’s published, the same way it does in Overwatch.
• Result count - the list header shows how many records you’re looking at out of the total matching your filters.
• Sort - change which field you’re sorting by and toggle ascending or descending. It defaults to start time descending, newest first.

Each row carries a thumbnail from the moment the activity fired, its priority, how long ago it happened, how long it lasted, and its name and description, so you can scan the list without opening anything. Select any row and its detail opens beside the list, keeping your place and your filters intact. The detail carries the activity’s name and description, its start and end time, and the agent that produced it along with that agent’s description, followed by its Activity Assets and Activity Audit. You can validate or invalidate an activity from here, the same as in Overwatch, and Edit Activity opens it for changes.

​

The Timeline

Above the list, Event Volume plots the activities matching your filters across the selected period, coloured by priority. Hover any bar to read that point in time, and use the zoom controls at the top right to widen or narrow the window. The bucket size adapts to the range you’re viewing, so a one-hour window groups by the minute while a longer range groups more coarsely. The range is no longer capped at 24 hours. Choose any start and end from the date control in the filter bar, and both the timeline and the list follow it. Tip: Hide Timeline collapses the panel when you’d rather give the list and detail the full height of the screen.

​

Filtering

A filter bar runs across the top of the page:

• Search activities - free-text search by activity name
• Priority - Critical, High, Medium; anything else shows as No Priority
• Status - the activity’s current state
• Site - which site it’s associated with
• Camera - which camera detected it
• Agent - the agent that produced the activity
• Labels - called “subtype” in the legacy event system
• Validation - whether a human has marked it Valid or Invalid
• Date range - any start and end you choose

Reset clears every filter and returns you to the default view.

​

Activity Assets

Any still images, GIFs, snapshots, or video clips a workflow created and attached to the activity appear under Activity Assets. Click one to expand it into a player with full playback controls, and a side panel carrying the asset’s Details (its tags and metadata, plus Open Raw JSON) and its Tracks. Two toggles in that panel control what’s drawn over the video:

• Show Detections - outline every detected object, labelled with its class.
• Show Zones - outline the zones configured for that camera.

Together they let you confirm why an activity fired and whether it genuinely met the workflow’s criteria.

​

Common Use

Event Activity is mainly a tool for reviewing work in progress: workflows, models, zones, and so on, still being tuned. It makes it easier to validate events, troubleshoot accuracy issues, redraw a camera-based or geofence zone, or adjust workflow logic to improve how well your captured activity matches what’s actually happening.
