A method for automatic spatial calibration of a network of cameras along a road includes, processing a frame that is obtained from each camera of the network to automatically identify an image of a pattern of road markings that have a known spatial relationship to one another. The identified images are used to calculate a position of each camera relative to the pattern of road markings that is imaged by that camera. Geographical information is applied to calculate an absolute position of a field of view of each camera. A global optimization is applied to adjust the absolute position of the field of view of each camera of the camera network relative to an absolute position of the fields of view of other cameras of the camera network
