Conducting area-wide surveillance with authority is now within reach.
by: Keith Harris
State, local, and federal government agencies can benefit from the capabilities offered in Perspective VMS®. The LENSEC team of physical security engineers have experience to help government agencies with a wide variety of solutions. A noteworthy example is that of a municipality in Texas. This suburban city employs PVMS to manage their video surveillance for multiple city departments.
Municipal Use Case Examples
- The police department has an interview room using PVMS as the recording interface, using it to capture video and audio for suspect interrogations.
- The parks department uses surveillance cameras to capture video of park activity and vandalism monitoring.
- The municipal courts have cameras and access control integrated with Perspective VMS® to monitor public activity onsite.
- The community center monitors a city pool location for public activity.
- Additional sites covered include: wastewater treatment plant, maintenance facility, senior adult center, public library
Multiple municipal departments are users of the single security interface. PVMS has been deployed citywide and users of the system are able to monitor areas within their area of concern. With a unified security platform across the entire city, users have a better chance of understanding the software interface and accessing surveillance evidence as needed.
The municipality also integrates access control with Perspective VMS®. This allows administrators to associate access control readers with nearby cameras, enhancing surveillance footage by connecting it to access control events. Upon card reader access, video of activity at the card reader can be bookmarked for verification of activity. By building out a citywide security footprint, this municipality has strengthened their ability to secure their assets and make people safe.
