Real-time monitoring of filaments is essential for the prediction of their eruption and the ensuing coronal mass ejection (CME). We apply an automated algorithm for the detection and tracking of filaments in full-disc Hα images to obtain their physical attributes. This provides an accurate onset time of the eruption, and also allows us to study the physical characteristics of the erupting filaments in an objective manner.
