The aim of this paper is to use closed-circuit television (CCTV) to search and track moving objects in inland
waterways. The area of the analysis is the part of the West Odra river between the Długi and Kolejowy
bridges in Szczecin. The points of interest are chosen intentionally due to the risk of vessel collision with
bridges. The results of the research into the implemented methods of tracking objects could be utilized in the
future to extend inland navigation services, which could be used by the captains of the ships and River Information
Services operational personnel as well.
