300 cameras utilized to monitor City buildings, pedestrian areas, nightlife, and social services

Ridgefield Park, NJ, August 05, 2010 — DVTel, Inc., multiple award-winning market leader in the development and delivery of intelligent security solutions over IP networks, today announced that the City of Albuquerque (NM) has standardized on the DVTel intelligent Security Operations Center (iSOC) to manage their ambitious, and growing, city-wide IP video Surveillance project. SCI, Inc. is the integrator partner on this long-running project installation and its continued roll-out.

Presently, approximately 300 cameras, managed by the DVTel iSOC, monitor facilities throughout the city ranging from the downtown City complex to solid waste facilities to a ground-breaking Family Advocacy Center. However, years before any surveillance system could be rolled out to today’s multiple locations, there first had to be standards.

Daved Levine, SCI President, described a long-term partnership between his company and the multiple city departments that developed slowly over time in an effort to create a set of IT standards and procedures. Mark Shepherd, Director of Security, City of Albuquerque, explained the challenge that faced him and SCI at project inception, “We have 6,000 employees, 18 different departments, 800 city-owned buildings spread across 400 square miles, and every department has their own budget and their own priorities. A key success factor for us was to set mandatory standards for all of our departments. Every department has their own ideas, their own cameras, but nothing talked to anything else. Now, if you’re going to place a camera or an access reader on the system it has to go through our Technical Review Committee and conform to the established standards for all software and hardware.”

One of those standards for video surveillance is DVTel. “Unless it’s DVTel, you cannot buy it,” stated Shepherd. For access control, the City of Albuquerque has settled on Software House as the standard. Shepherd continued, “I was very impressed with DVTel the first time I saw it at the National Archives in [Washington] DC.”

Gauteng, March 2010 — C3 Shared Services (Pty) ltd has been appointed by Bombardier to supply and install a combination of two military grade technologies, namely Opgal’s thermal cameras combined with ioimage intelligent video analytics, to monitor the tracks and tunnels of the Gautrain rail.

Due to the emphasis on a very high level of security along the Gautrain rail and in the tunnels, the main criteria was to select a combination of technologies that shall provide detection of human targets even in no light conditions. Opgal’s thermal cameras combined with ioimage intelligent video analytics were selected for their high probability of detection and low false alarm rate. This decision was not taken lightly and was only decided upon once rigorous and extensive testing had been conducted between different brands of thermal cameras and video analytics. The test results were then sent over to France for final scrutinizing, which was based on the performance of the technologies to comply or excel the high criteria of user requirements set by Bombardier as part of their security methodology.

Unfortunately, Los Angeles has a habit of deadly New Year’s celebrations: firing off guns in the air to mark the occasion.
Recently, LA County Sheriff Baca, backed by Police Chief Bratton, held a news conference to discourage this deadly practice by demonstrating a new, highly-promising technology.

DVTel’s Latitude Network Video management system is integrated with a Sentri Gunshot Detection alarm system that upon alarm automatically directs surveillance cameras to the area of gunshots. Police personnel can then investigate in real time—both using video and by deploying to the scene—in an effort to cut down on this life-threatening celebration and to reduce gun violence at all times of year.
