IP-based Video Surveillance

The advent of IP-based video surveillance offers vast improvements over traditional, analog systems and coaxial cabling.  Historically, video cameras were associated only with surveillance and security. But today, video analytics are being used in applications as far ranging as traffic management, manufacturing processes, observing consumer behavior as well as traditional monitoring of property and employees.

Employees report that cameras provide them with a sense of security — a psychological benefit that is especially valued by staff members who may encounter unpredictable behavior from members of the public.  In comparison to hiring security guards, video cameras are an inexpensive way to monitor large campuses — and to be all places at once. Schools, religious institutions, residential complexes, rehabilitation centers, and other similar facilities are finding it prudent to install cameras at strategic locations for the safety of staff and visitors.

ITS works with clients to place cameras anywhere visual monitoring is desired. These IP video cameras can collect high definition video, record it, and stream it securely to any web browser. Cameras can be configured to trigger on motion. Recording and archiving video data can be managed on-site or remotely in the cloud.  Many camera models can be controlled (pointed and focused) remotely, and programmed to trigger an email alert or cell phone call. Facility managers can then log in remotely and securely to view what is happening at the monitored location.
