The technologies of IP video surveillance have taken giant steps in recent years, making it possible to accommodate and solve situations that previously wasn’t possible to solve. Among them you will find many different IP solutions oriented to meet the demands of city councils and public institutions.
What kind of solutions?
There is a wide variety of solutions to meet just as wide a variety of different needs, but in general we can condense the needs into three categories:
1. Control in public buildings
Besides ensuring the security of public buildings, many public institutions would like to receive data that can help them keep track of the operation of their facilities.
For example to control the capacity of the facilities and keep a record of the amount of people entering museums or offices. This situation can be solved by the people counting camera.
In many museums and other facilities with large open spaces, there are cameras installed in every corner. However, in many cases this is an unnecessary expense. With a Fisheye camera you can control the entire space with one single camera as well as monitor the flow of people with the integrated heat map function. This allows you to identify the bottlenecks of the room and show you where the people in the room are spending most time, which enables you to optimize the layout of the room accordingly.
2. Perimeter control in municipal facilities
There are many cities that have high-value facilities that need to be controlled against possible thefts as for instance purification plants, dumps, cemeteries or municipal deposits. In many of these the grounds are sizable and the perimeters difficult to cover. For these kind of assignments the thermal cameras offer the perfect solution. They can cover large perimeters and can detect human line crossings of a perimeter of up to 180 meters and vehicles up to 514 meters. If you combine the technology of thermal cameras with PTZ cameras, you will obtain a highly efficient integrated security system.
3. Safety in the streets
The city councils are more than ever seeking maximum security in their cities through video surveillance and therefore they mount cameras on all the busiest streets. But there are other types of solutions that can help to increase the security in the municipality even more. For instance the integration of a license plate reading camera. The LPR-camera can read license plates in up to 4 lanes simultaneously at speeds of up to 70 km/h. This way you can monitor and register all the vehicles entering the city thus easing the work of the security forces and improving the security of the municipality.
Integration of security systems
All these security solutions are IP which allows the municipality or institution to carry out the control of all the systems from the same point and in a very simple way with the Safire Control Center application, where they can add and monitor all the cameras and installations.
Added value
Because we know that different city councils have different needs that may be difficult to cover with everyday applications, we offer our SAFIRE LINK service. If you have a specific request, our technical team will investigate the possibility of developing an application that meets your need to offer added value to our products.
