A set of cameras can operate in coordination for surveillance purposes to provide situation awareness at a system level. Any infrastructure of cameras, public or private, can incidentally view and record an individual's mobile property when in view of any of these cameras. A locating unit can determine the approximate location of a mobile property. A monitoring device that correlates to the mobile property's location can be selected. The transmission of surveillance information from the selected monitoring device can be provided to a user, such as via a transmission to the user's mobile device. Thus, the individual can have access to the monitoring device's viewing or recorded data to increase surveillance of mobile property.

1. An apparatus comprising: a processor; andmemory coupled to the processor, the memory comprising executable instructions that when executed by the processor cause the process to effectuate operations comprising: receiving a request to register with a service provider for surveillance of a mobile property for a period of time while the mobile property is within a first region associated with the service provider;based on the request to register with the service provider, initiating a comparison of a global positioning system-based location of a mobile property to a plurality of surveillance regions to determine if the location of the mobile property correlates with at least one of the plurality of surveillance regions;when at least one of the plurality of surveillance regions correlates to the location of the mobile property, determining a monitoring device for covering the correlating surveillance region for the period of time while the mobile property is within the first region, wherein the monitoring device comprises at least one of a video recorder or an audio recorder; andbased on the monitoring device, allowing a mobile device to receive an audio or video feed of the mobile property using the monitoring device for the period of time while the mobile property is within the first region. 2. The apparatus of claim 1, wherein the period of time is a duration of time in which a user of a mobile device is away from the mobile property. 3. The apparatus of claim 1, wherein a surveillance region that correlates to the location of the mobile property comprises at least one of: a surveillance region that includes the location of the mobile property;a surveillance region that is proximate to the location of the mobile property; ora surveillance region that includes a region comprising a variable range from the location of the mobile property. 4. The apparatus of claim 1, wherein the feed is also received via at least one of an image. 5. The apparatus of claim 1, wherein the first region is associated with a shopping mall. 6. The apparatus of claim 1, wherein the mobile property comprises a vehicle. 7. The apparatus of claim 1, wherein the feed further comprises information from a plurality of surveillance regions that correlate with the location of the mobile property as the mobile property is in motion. 8. The apparatus of claim 1, wherein: the apparatus comprises a mobile communications device; andthe initiating is accomplished via an application executing on the communications device. 9. A method comprising: initiating, via an application executing on a communications device, a processor, a comparison of a location of a mobile property to a plurality of surveillance regions to determine if the location of the mobile property correlates with at least one of the plurality of surveillance regions, wherein: the plurality of surveillance regions comprises a triggering location region;the plurality of surveillance regions is defined by at least a listening radius of respective monitoring devices;at least one of the respective monitoring devices are in transit; andthe comparison is performed independent of the mobile property being detected in a surveillance region; andwhen at least one of the plurality of surveillance regions correlates to the location of the mobile property, receiving, by the communications device, a feed from a monitoring device covering the correlating surveillance region,wherein the monitoring device comprises at least one of a video recorder or an audio recorder. 10. The method of claim 9, wherein the comparison comprises comparing the location of the mobile property to stored positional data. 11. The method of claim 9, wherein a surveillance region that correlates to the location of the mobile property comprises at least one of: a surveillance region that includes the location of the mobile property;a surveillance region that is proximate to the location of the mobile property; ora surveillance region that includes a region comprising a variable range from the location of the mobile property. 12. The method of claim 9, wherein the feed is also received via a Short Message Service (SMS) message. 13. The method of claim 9, wherein each surveillance region of the plurality of surveillance regions is associated with a respective monitoring device. 14. The method of claim 9, wherein the mobile property comprises a vehicle. 15. The method of claim 9, wherein the feed further comprises information from a plurality of surveillance regions that correlate with the location of the mobile property as the mobile property is in motion. 16. A computer-readable storage medium that is not a signal per se, the computer readable storage medium comprising executable instructions that when executed by a processor cause the processor to effectuate operations comprising: receiving a request to register with a service provider for surveillance of a mobile property for a period of time while the mobile property is within a first region associated with the service provider;based on the request to register with the service provider, initiating a comparison of a global positioning system-based location of a mobile property to a plurality of surveillance regions to determine if the location of the mobile property correlates with at least one of the plurality of surveillance regions;when at least one of the plurality of surveillance regions correlates to the location of the mobile property, receiving a feed from determining a monitoring device for covering the correlating surveillance region for the period of time while the mobile property is within the first region, wherein the monitoring device comprises at least one of a video recorder or an audio recorder; andbased on the monitoring device, allowing a mobile device to receive an audio or video feed of the mobile property using the monitoring device for the period of time while the mobile property is within the first region. 17. The computer-readable storage medium of claim 16, wherein the comparison comprises comparing the location of the mobile property to stored positional data. 18. The computer-readable storage medium of claim 16, period of time is a duration of time in which a user of a mobile device is away from the mobile property. 19. The computer-readable storage medium of claim 16, wherein the first region is associated with a shopping mall. 20. The computer-readable storage medium of claim 16, wherein the mobile property comprises a vehicle.
