Monitoring of video surveillance systems
Problem
Securing the flow of people is becoming a major issue. The entire public transportation value chain, from equipment manufacturers to transportation operators, is focused on a complex technical and economic challenge: how to provide client-users with enhanced security while increasing accessibility and reducing operating costs. In particular, surveillance along railway lines is a challenge both in terms of safety and operational optimization.
Several tens of thousands of IP cameras will be able to send valuable data, beyond the IP video stream. A connected information system will offer new capabilities and services to operators: real-time camera switching, web access to video, device monitoring, smart maintenance, etc.
Solution
IT Link developed and ensured the application management (Third-Party Application Maintenance) of a platform capable of supervising a large-scale video surveillance system.
The high-availability setup enables real-time collection and display of video streams from over 1,200 cameras.
IT Link contributed its expertise to the creation of a truly connected industrial Information System linked to IP camera devices, with involvement at multiple levels:
- High-level layers: Information Systems, web application development, data analysis, etc.
- Infrastructure layers: IP camera interconnectivity and transport of both video streams and camera-generated data over IP networks
