 97 Moxa and 545 Genetec are to join forces to develop an integrated solution for the unification of onboard and wayside IP video surveillance in a single, seamless system.

The aim is to manufacture unified IP-based access control, video surveillance and licence plate recognition solutions in a single platform, to ensure passenger safety, manage incidents and conduct investigations in the railway industry without affecting regular transport operations.

Genetec’s Security Center and Moxa’s smart rail solutions, including high-performance railway IP video cameras, network video recorders and train-to-ground communication systems, provide a powerful and reliable system that enhances security and increases operational efficiency, allowing real-time access to onboard IP cameras from any location on the network and automating the offload of video recordings.

Benefits of the unified security system include enhanced situational awareness with seamless access to onboard and wayside IP video surveillance cameras, increased operational efficiency, as well as accelerated investigations with full-motion HD IP video and consolidated reporting and automated emergency response.

    The continued expansion of IP camera networks increases the availability of useful information. At the same time, the opportunity exists to increase inter-agency collaboration. This makes information management all the more necessary in the control room environment. But the transportation sector could do a lot to help itself by gaining a better idea up front of what and how it wants to do things, says Electrosonic's Karl Johnson.

    The desire to retrieve images from more and more locations means that IP video networks’ geographic coverage is growing all the time. In parallel, those same networks are becoming more densely populated with cameras. Although the individual cameras may only take 3Mb/s of bandwidth at average resolutions and frame rates, their cumulative effect is pushing jurisdictions towards the use of Gigabit Ethernet.

    Integrating control rooms can improve traffic management, security and emergency response without excessive cost or compromising privacy. In the wake of the recent terrorist events in France and Germany where the transport system was exploited with deadly consequences, many governments and agencies are reviewing the security arrangements – particularly around popular and high profile events.
