# Movements

{% hint style="success" %}
Movement patterns are based on [Frigate Zones](https://docs.frigate.video/configuration/zones). Configure zones properly before analyzing movements.
{% endhint %}

The Movements tab allows operators to see counts of objects through zones. This is commonly used to provide confirmation counts against manual counts and to determine if deployment and zones provide accurate counts.

## Descriptions

1. Movements Selection: Selectable filters to specify.
2. Movement behavior selection: Provides the ability to filter objects that go through *any* of the selected zones or objects that go through *only selected zones*.
3. Table of counts by object for selected movement pattern filters.

## Example of complex movement patterns

A complex intersection provides potentially dozens of combinations of turning behaviors and movement. The movements tab provides the ability to confirm against manual counts.
