1. A surveillance method of a protected area implemented within a surveillance system comprising: a graphic user interface presenting a reference image of a portion of the protected area to a user, the portion corresponding to a field of view of the protected area from a camera; identifying a set of bounds of a relatively stationary object within the protected area that exhibits some inconsequential or immaterial movement from a drawing provided on the reference image by the user through the graphic user interface; defining a set of vertices of a blocking zone within the protected area around the relatively stationary object from the drawing; obtaining an image of the protected area from the camera; the surveillance system detecting an object image; the surveillance system identifying the detected object as being non-reportable if the object is initially detected completely within the defined blocking zone of the image; the surveillance system identifying the detected object as being reportable if the object is initially detected beyond the defined blocking zone of the image and within the protected area; the surveillance system obtaining subsequent images from the camera; the surveillance system detecting the object within the subsequent images; the surveillance system tracking the detected object within the blocking zone the surveillance system identifying the detected object as being reportable from the detected subsequent images if the detected object departs the defined blocking zone of the image and is still located within the protected area beyond the defined blocking zone of the image wherein an alarm is generated for reportable objects and wherein after the object is identified as reportable the object can not be subsequently identified as being non-reportable and will continue to generate an alarm, even if the object enters a blocking zone.
