1. A monitoring system comprising:
an edge processing apparatus including a space distinct ID management database, a space distinct ID control unit, a storage unit, an analysis unit, and an abnormality determination unit; and
a controller, a transmitter, and a camera with sensor that are installed in a location to be monitored, wherein
the space distinct ID management database stores a space distinct ID and a transmission time of the space distinct ID in association with the location to be monitored,
the space distinct ID control unit acquires the space distinct ID associated with the location to be monitored from the space distinct ID management database and transmits the space distinct ID that is acquired to the controller in the associated location to be monitored,
the controller transmits the space distinct ID acquired from the space distinct ID control unit to the transmitter,
the transmitter generates a signal based on the space distinct ID acquired from the controller and diffuses, in a space of the location to be monitored, the signal that is generated,
the camera with sensor includes a sensor that captures an image of the location to be monitored where the camera with sensor is installed and receives the signal diffused by the transmitter, and the camera with sensor transmits a received signal received by the sensor to the storage unit,
the storage unit stores the received signal received from the camera with sensor in association with the location to be monitored where the camera with sensor is installed,
the analysis unit extracts a space distinct ID from the received signal stored in the storage unit and transmits the space distinct ID that is extracted to the abnormality determination unit in association with the location to be monitored, and
the abnormality determination unit compares and determines whether there is a match between the space distinct ID associated with the location to be monitored from the analysis unit and current time, and the space distinct ID and the transmission time of the space distinct ID associated with the location to be monitored that are stored in the space distinct ID management database.
