Citywide
Video Monitoring

bar-01

Help make your residents, businesses, and visitors feel safe and secure, while extending your public safety personnel with the help of edge technology.

Solution

IntelliSite’s video monitoring is a self-contained solution, providing cameras and secure video storage at the edge to reduce the demand on bandwidth. The solution quickly and accurately detects suspicious activity and creates a real-time alert. You can either have a remote agent intervene or immediately flag the event for law enforcement attention.

Our rugged solution typically involves an edge compute device mounted on a pole, with high definition cameras monitoring day and night. With built-in 4G/LTE cellular connectivity sending data to the cloud, you will be able to visualize all activity through your DeepInsights dashboard. View video data gathered from across your city and remotely monitor the health of all assets, even in remote locations with challenging communication infrastructure. Use DeepInsights to export video on-demand for forensic searching and evidence.

To assist with resource bandwidth constraints, the IntelliSite 24/7 event monitoring service constantly validates security events and deters unwanted activity via voice-down interventions while notifying local first responders in real-time.

CITYWIDE VIDEO MONITORING

Advanced technology

Video monitoring can be combined with IntelliSite AI technology to capture vehicle images, and convert them into a readable and searchable license plate, make, model and color data, plus an associated video clip per vehicle for evidence. Other AI based analytics available are loitering, perimeter intrusion, crosswalk safety, plus others.

Challenges

In-person, 24/7 security to protect against crimes such as vandalism, copper theft and illegal dumping, is both expensive and impractical. Conversely, one video surveillance study showed that cameras deployed across the city caused the crime rate to drop by over 50%. Additionally, law enforcement that participated in the study noted that, even when crimes occurred, forensic video evidence collected made it easier to solve cases and successfully prosecute.

FaQ

How long is video retained?

Video recording is stored at the edge, near the camera, for at least 30 days. Live video is pulled into our DeepInsights cloud platform, on demand so it does not consume your cellular bandwidth. This means that you will be able to retrieve video evidence from an incident 30 days in the past.

Can I integrate with an existing VMS we used?

Yes, our system supports integration with the most common Video Management Systems for alerting and video management. New custom integration can be done on demand though MQTT, Kafka, HTTP, or other communication mechanisms.

How does it work at night?

The on-board battery completely powers the system for up to 30 days. Also, the camera has night vision, which uses an IR illumination to provide a clear image at night.

How long does the solution store metadata?

For the analytics and metadata results, the system can store events for up to 6 months. Access is provided through DeepInsights. The exact number of days can vary slightly based on the amount of activity in the scene. More storage capacity can be requested.

Can I rebrand the system?

Yes, in fact it is recommended, as your brand is something your community will immediately recognize. Through our Citizen Engagement program, you will be able to apply a large decal to the unit to reinforce the fact that you are taking the initiative to monitor traffic safety. Citizens will scan a QR code to access the full information.

Can I reuse our fiber that already exists at an intersection?

Yes, the system can reuse your fiber infrastructure instead of using a cellular connection.
