The team\u2019s goal is to highlight its monuments and artifacts while providing a welcoming and secure environment for visitors. A key challenge was the Park\u2019s large open and unfenced grounds, allowing the public access to the facilities at any time of the day or night.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cWe had begun to notice an increased rate of delinquent incidents happening during the day and off hours, including graffiti placed on the artifacts and monuments,\u201d said Paul Marzello, Sr., President &amp; CEO, Buffalo and Erie County Naval &amp; Military Park.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Park engaged Mario Rodriguez, president of Forseti Protection Group, and Erik Schiefer, account executive at Seibold Security, to design and install a surveillance system based on <span class=\"hwFont\">Hanwha Vision<\/span>\u2019s multi-directional and AI-equipped cameras. \u201cWhen we did our research, we found that <span class=\"hwFont\">Hanwha Vision<\/span> certainly was a leader in the industry,\u201d said Marzello.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cWe conducted a site survey, considering line of sight, the cameras\u2019 capabilities, the density of groups of visitors and where they tend to gravitate, and criminal history in the Park,\u201d said Bill Abbott, Director of Operations, Buffalo and Erie County Naval &amp; Military Park. \u201cThose were all factors in how we determined the layout. We wanted to make sure that we had the right coverage.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"925\" height=\"225\" src=\"https:\/\/www.hanwhavision.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/image-12.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1547333\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.hanwhavision.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/image-12.png 925w, https:\/\/www.hanwhavision.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/image-12-600x146.png 600w, https:\/\/www.hanwhavision.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/image-12-768x187.png 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 925px) 100vw, 925px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>From a risk and public safety perspective, the goal from the start was maintaining an open and welcoming environment while keeping public safety top-of-mind.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Schiefer has extensive experience with <span class=\"hwFont\">Hanwha Vision<\/span> cameras from previous projects. \u201cTheir new 4K multi-sensor cameras are first class and as far as 360\u00b0 coverage, with the ability to monitor several areas, <span class=\"hwFont\">Hanwha Vision<\/span> was the first choice,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The ability to view 360\u00b0 coverage from one camera that essentially is divided into multiple sectors was significant. \u201cThat gives us full visibility and lets us be open and welcoming while keeping out of the public\u2019s way without being imposing or intimidating,\u201d Rodriguez said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Schiefer added that one key benefit of using the <span class=\"hwFont\">Hanwha Vision<\/span> 360\u00b0 cameras to cover such a large area is the ease of playing back footage and monitoring activity after the fact.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThey are broken out into four sensors, so you don\u2019t necessarily have to go back and look through a large amount of footage,\u201d he said. \u201cYou can pick the area you&#8217;re looking for, go directly to that sensor within the camera that we have in that area, and you can pull footage much easier that way.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>One challenge the team encountered during the design phase was running cable for a project of this scale.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThe cost to run buried cable at such long distances with switches would have rendered this project almost completely impossible,\u201d Schiefer said. \u201cWe incorporated wireless network cards into the poles around the park and all the cameras feed directly back to the <span class=\"hwFont\">Hanwha Vision<\/span> NVR without using any sort of cabling.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Park\u2019s priorities included the use of National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA) compliant solutions and having more streamlined communication with law enforcement.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cWe wanted to make sure that the cameras themselves were secure,\u201d said Abbott. \u201cThe cameras also needed to be used to positively identify someone who had done something, either damage or acts of violence. In the past, we had no capacity to effectively supply law enforcement with usable information to identify a suspect. We&#8217;ve now changed that with the quality of cameras that we&#8217;re using. We can share footage and data to produce an outcome that&#8217;s satisfying to everybody as far as finding a culprit and holding them accountable.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The <span class=\"hwFont\">Hanwha Vision<\/span> cameras\u2019 use of AI plays a key role in delivering those capabilities. \u201cYou can use key identifiers, whether it&#8217;s the color of someone&#8217;s shirt, if they&#8217;re wearing a backpack, or there&#8217;s some physical feature that we can then go through and locate that person through the system,\u201d Abbott said. \u201cWe absolutely would see an increase in the value and number of cameras that we use.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Marzello added, \u201cFrom an operations standpoint, we feel a greater sense of security knowing the cameras are there and will help us identify activities that we can hopefully prevent. This system meets our needs today and will also be able to grow with us.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Naval Park installed a wireless surveillance system based on Hanwha Vision\u2019s multi-directional and AI-equipped cameras<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":1547344,"template":"","hws_case_study_cat":[385],"hws_case_study_country":[19714],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.hanwhavision.com\/ar\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/hws_case_study\/1547354"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.hanwhavision.com\/ar\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/hws_case_study"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.hanwhavision.com\/ar\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/hws_case_study"}],"version-history":[{"count":6,"href":"https:\/\/www.hanwhavision.com\/ar\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/hws_case_study\/1547354\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":1591749,"href":"https:\/\/www.hanwhavision.com\/ar\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/hws_case_study\/1547354\/revisions\/1591749"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.hanwhavision.com\/ar\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/1547344"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.hanwhavision.com\/ar\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1547354"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"hws_case_study_cat","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.hanwhavision.com\/ar\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/hws_case_study_cat?post=1547354"},{"taxonomy":"hws_case_study_country","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.hanwhavision.com\/ar\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/hws_case_study_country?post=1547354"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
