850 Apollo Video Technology has announced that health reports of mobile video surveillance systems for public transit vehicles, including cameras, digital video recorders (DVRs) and hard drives, can now be accessed in conjunction with existing features available with its Video information Management (ViM) software.

The company says its DVR health module provides transit managers with immediate access to error reports, such as camera video loss events or failed DVR recordings, when logged into the system. Reports now also provide an evaluation and time stamp of which vehicles encounter technical or power errors. The ViM software also supplies comprehensive vehicle status reports, event logs, on-demand video-clip retrieval and automated download of event video clips. The software is capable of archiving footage with short-term and long-term video evidence storage options, chain of custody management, event statistics and reporting features.
