Remote Surveillance Monitoring

Fewer cameras, lower cost, stronger deterrent

One Viseum camera covers the ground of several fixed cameras. You protect more remote sites with fewer installations. Running costs also fall well below manned remote monitoring or guarding patrols. The system deters. Sites that once suffered repeat crime often record none at all.

Remote monitoring with the Viseum IMC

Remote sites have always cost money to watch.

Rapid crime solving

In practice, Viseum’s monitoring software automatically detects remote site break-ins and sends the alarm. Also, the alarm has information about who entered the remote site, with a detailed description of them. It also shows where they can be located, where else they have been throughout the remote site and what they have been doing.

Viseum’s remote monitoring advantages

Criminals could be wearing hoods or facial masks, which makes video of their clothing essential. Having this high-quality video of details, such as brand logos and material, usually encourages confession and conviction. If intruders escape the remote site, Viseum’s high-quality video evidence helps investigate, recognise, identify and convict.

This narrated presentation shows how any organisation can have the best future-proof security for their entire enterprise, with the most advanced Command Control, designed for and installed at any chosen location.

How remote surveillance monitoring works

Remote surveillance monitoring links the cameras on a site to a control room somewhere else. Trained operators receive alarms, check them and send a response.

The AI flags. Analytics software watches every camera all the time. It flags a person or vehicle in a closed area, a line crossed, a fence approached or someone waiting where they should not be. It ignores weather, shadows and animals when it is set up well.

The camera confirms. On a basic system, the operator receives a short clip from a fixed camera. On a more advanced system, a moving camera turns to the event, zooms in and follows it. The operator then sees a close-up of what is happening now.

The operator decides. The operator checks the alarm against the live picture. A false alarm is closed and logged, while a real one follows a set procedure for that site.

The response. The operator can warn the intruder through a loudspeaker, call the site’s keyholder, send a patrol or call the police. The camera keeps the intruder in view until help arrives, and the operator passes on their position and description.

The evidence. Every incident is recorded with its time, place and video. Good evidence shows how the incident started, where the suspects came from and where they went.

How to choose. Ask how the system confirms an alarm before an operator acts. Ask what the operator sees, how fast they respond and what evidence is handed over.

What is the difference between remote video surveillance and recorded CCTV?

Recorded CCTV shows you what happened after the event. Remote video surveillance puts an operator on the alarm while it is happening. The operator can warn the intruder, send help and keep the intruder in view. Recordings are still kept, so the evidence is there for investigators afterwards.

What does the AI flag, and what does the operator confirm?

The AI flags events, such as a person in a closed area or a vehicle at a fence. It does not decide what happens next. The operator looks at the live picture, confirms whether the alarm is real and chooses the response. That split keeps false alarms away from patrols and the police.

Can remote monitoring replace security guards?

It can reduce guarding a great deal, especially at night and on remote sites. Operators can watch many sites at once and send a patrol when an alarm is confirmed as real. Most sites still need people to respond on the ground. Remote monitoring makes sure they are sent to the right place.
