1 AIRPORT VIDEO MONITORING SOLUTION 1

2 AIRPORT SURVEILLANCE CHALLENGES Airports are essential parts of transportation systems around the world. Larger, more complex airports are more likely to undergo constant stress and face increased security and logistic issues. Airport staff has to work in crowded, fast-paced environments that allow for no mistakes. At an international airport the logistics of aircraft and various ground handling services can go in different directions than what was planned for a given day. Fast reaction and well-organized steps are crucial in stressed situations to avoid costly delays and accidents. Although most incidents are not malicious, airports need to be prepared for criminal activities as well. Passengers, staff and assets need to be protected. 1 2

3 THE LOGIPIX AIRPORT VIDEO SURVEILLANCE SOLUTION THE MAIN COMPONENTS OF THE SOLUTION Logipix 200 MP Panorama camera Logipix Network Video Recorders Logipix ONE 20 MP camera Logipix Airport Video Server Software package Logipix Laser IR Flash 500W Logipix 6 MP PTZ cameras Logipix Long Range PTZ 5km Logipix GPS Positioning interface Logipix Airport Video Client Logipix Airport Video Wall Client Arranging these components in the most suitable way for both security and logistic tasks can lead to a safer and much more controlled environment. Monitoring all large areas of airports effectively, while being able to help the ground support equipment is a real challenge. Logipix created an end-to-end Airport Video Surveillance solution that is able to overcome these issues and provides a solid base for airport security and ground support logistics. Different areas of airports with different functions call for specific security measures. The Logipix Airport Video Surveillance solution is able to cover each of the landside and airside areas and serve different kind of tasks simultaneously. With the help of our speciallydeveloped high-end IP cameras, Network Video Recorders, embedded Video Content Analysis and VMS with intelligent security and ramp control functions, Logipix is able to meet the strict requirements of airports. 3 4

4 Aiding airport logistics The Logipix Airport Video Surveillance solution is able to help the logistics of aircraft and Ground Support Equipment. The system provides a full coverage of the runway, taxiway, aircraft parking and apron areas, traffic can be monitored and the moving objects can be visually identified and tracked by VCA. Besides providing enormous image resolution, and hardware-driven VCA, the Logipix system features Airplanes and Ground Support Equipment can be easily tracked in the entire airside area even in low lighting and bad weather conditions, and also at night. Aircraft movement can be monitored from the moment of landing until next take-off. Operators can zoom in on the 200 MP panoramic images to get minute details and they can also use the optical zoom capabilities of 6 MP PTZ cameras to get even higher resolution images of certain situations. using 200 MP stitched panoramic images and the several intelligent functions that help the operators. images of PTZ cameras. In these areas the ground Airfield Operation Control The 200 MP Panorama camera provides real-time, advanced zoom functions of the Airport Video Client, high-resolution visual information on the airfield and allowing them to observe the entire area as if they supports all maintenance work. Operators can use the were using binoculars. Windowless Ramp Control The Logipix Airport Video Surveillance solution has binoculars, operators watch high-resolution images on been developed to help the ground control operators a video wall and on monitors at their workstations. by creating a new base for observation with images of IDs of the aircraft and moving objects, and several hundred megapixels. Instead of looking informational virtual layers are also displayed on through a window with their naked eyes or with the images. 5 6

5 GPS-based object labeling The Logipix system is capable of receiving the GPS coordinates of various objects from the A-SMGCS. This information is then matched with the VCA-recognized objects in the panoramic images. This way the aircraft registration numbers and IDs of ground support vehicles equipped with GPS position transponders can be displayed with the camera images. Layering and User notes Virtual layers can be drawn on the panoramic images. They can either be predefined (e.g. outline of a parking position) or dynamically added (e.g. temporarily closed areas). Layers can be private or visible for all operators. User notes can also be recorded on the video display, for instance to list which services have been already performed on an airplane. VT-JCL , JAI2401 ATR W2401 Bangalore BUS-V , Apron bus VT-IDA , IGO827 A E827 Bangalore VT-IAS , IGO26 A E26 Dubai BUS-C , Apron bus VT-TTB , VTI870 A UK870 Delhi 7 8

6 Archive footage Images can be tagged by operators to make searches easier during archive playback. In case of any negligence or accident the situation can be investigated Video Wall by watching the quality archive footage. For instance, if a small damage has been discovered on the airplane during maintenance service, details of the case can be brought to light using the high-resolution images. Any frame of the stored video stream may constitute irrefutable visual evidence.

8 SECURITY VIDEO SURVEILLANCE AREAS On the way to the airport The Logipix Video surveillance starts even before passengers and staff arrive at the airport. The system is able to monitor surrounding areas, the main access roads and even nearby public transportation stations. Thanks to the advanced Logipix Video Content Analysis (VCA) aided by Automatic License Plate recognition (ANPR), blacklisted vehicles can be detected even before they enter the airport. Parking lots In parking lots it is useful that the Panorama camera the Logipix panorama camera, additional Logipix can cover wide areas with stitched images. If trees or ONE cameras can cover the missing area so nothing is other objects are in the way of the observation area of hidden. Terminal surveillance Once passengers and staff enter the airport building, their actions and movements can be tracked easily throughout the airport with Logipix cameras. To conveniently follow the natural, most probable flow of people, several monitor profiles can be set in the easy-to-use Logipix video management software, the Control Center. Perimeter security The Logipix solution also protects airports from perimeter intrusion. The system is able to receive the alarm signals of the 3rd-party Perimeter Intrusion Detection System. The Logipix PTZ automatically zooms to the specific area where the alarm comes, from and with the help of the embedded motion detection function, the PTZ camera precisely tracks the motion of the detected intruder. The PTZ also features focus tracking, ensuring that the image of the intruder is always clear and sharp. Apron Logipix 200 MP Panorama and 6 MP PTZ cameras that serve logistic tasks can also perform security video surveillance. Logipix Panorama provides an expanded, clear view for operators of the entire monitored area. Security operators in the control room can detect any suspicious behavior or internal threat

9 MAIN SYSTEM FEATURES Panoramic images Logipix panoramic technology makes it possible to geometrically stitch images of individual sensors that are built into the Panorama camera house. The images are taken synchronized manner, and as a result there are no glitches or missing objects in the panoramic image. White balance correction smoothens the color gradient between the images. The reason for using only one large image, and not many individual ones, is to facilitate the everyday monitoring procedures. As operators do not have to look through dozens of images, observation is more convenient. Panoramic image without image synchronization Panoramic image without white balance correction The Logipix panoramic image with image synchronization Self-cleaning of the Panorama camera The Logipix panoramic image with white balance correction The Panorama camera housing is complete with an automatic self-cleaning system that consists of a water tank with cleaning liquid and washers and wipers at all camera windows. The cleaning procedure can be scheduled and started automatically to significantly facilitate the maintenance of the device

12 CONCLUSION The Logipix Airport Video Surveillance solution makes airports more secure and better organized. It helps prevent accidents and other incidents in all airport areas, but when trouble has occured the high resolution video footage can play a key role during investigation and provides irrefutable visual evidence. The end-to-end solution also ensures a smooth ground control operation, thereby significantly raising airport efficiency, reducing the number of costly delays, and shortening the system s payback period
