This research describes an experimental solution used for estimating the positions of pedestrians from video recordings. Additionally, clustering algorithms were utilized to interpret the data. The system employs the You Only Look Once (YOLO) algorithm for object detection. The detection algorithm is applied to video recordings provided by an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV). An experimental method for calculating the pedestrian's geolocation is proposed. The output of the calculation, i.e., the data file, can be visualized on a map and analyzed using cluster analyses, including K-means, DBSCAN, and OPTICS algorithms. The experimental software solution can be deployed on a UAV or other computing devices. Further testing was performed to evaluate the suitability of the selected algorithms and to identify optimal use cases. This solution can successfully detect groups of pedestrians from video recordings and it provides tools for subsequent cluster analyses. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
