Observation Of Your Targets Home


This depends on where your target lives, a target that lives in an apartment is more difficult to observe than a target that lives in a normal one or two story home.
Also the neighborhood density can either be your friend or your foe, if you target is located in a suburb for example, it can be difficult to make an observation succeed without getting caught. In a more desolated area on the other hand, nature and night are your friend. I would not recommend to observe a suburb target at night time, since this would cause a lot of suspicion. Strange unusual vehicles and/or people again tend to glow like a fucking Christmas Tree in the neighborhood.



In a more desolated and unpopulated area, night time observation is advised also you want to use natural covers like bushes or trees. BUT assure that you are alone and not observed yourself by someone or something before you take cover. This counts for people as well as for surveillance equipment like cameras.
Cameras can be your enemy but also your friend, since you can use camera technology as well. For example if you cant or don’t want to stay in an area for longer observation, you can try to find a suitable hiding spot. There you can deposit a small video camera with enough battery power and storage capacity for a few hours. Important is to assure that your equipment is working and will remain undetected until you return to remove it form the hiding spot.

Precautions

As a preparation for the event that your camera is detected, it is important to wear gloves while handling your equipment, also clean any kind of finger prints from it. Also try not to leave any DNA trace on it that could be recorded by the police, if the camera is found and reviewed by a paranoid target. The suspect might hand your equipment over to the police where it would be analyzed, by this your finger prints and/or DNA profile could end up in a law enforcement database.
Also you should make sure that the camera you pic is not too expensive in case it should get lost. When it comes down to the video quality and features, make sure it has a decent zoom and a good night vision feature THIS IS VERY IMPORTANT since you will be shooting at night.
The distance from the hiding spot of the camera to the target should be far enough away to avoid detection. The footage quality is still good enough to give you information’s you need a blurry video footage wont be much of a good information source.

Also it is wise to cover up lights on the camera that might indicate that its operating, since this could give your cameras location away. BE CAREFUL NOT TO COVER UP THE LENSE !!!
