sledenje

Sledenje is a Slovenian noun meaning the act of following, monitoring, or tracing the movement or state of a person, animal, object, or phenomenon. It derives from the verb slediti ("to follow") and the noun-forming suffix -enje. In many contexts, sledenje functions as a general term for tracking or surveillance.

In wildlife biology and ecology, sledenje refers to methods for tracking animals, such as tagging, collars, or observation, to study movement, habitat use, and behavior. In logistics and asset management, it denotes the tracking of shipments or vehicles via GPS and telemetry, enabling real-time location and status updates.

In technology, sledenje describes object tracking in computer vision, motion capture, and analytics of user behavior. It includes algorithms that maintain the identity of moving objects across frames, predict trajectories, or recognize targets over time.

Privacy and ethics: sledenje raises concerns about surveillance and the collection of personal data. In the European Union, tracking of individuals is regulated by the GDPR and national laws; practices require a lawful basis, transparency, purpose limitation, data minimization, and security measures.
