ATLANTA, July 5, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- Georgia Power
introduces SiteView™, a powerful new video
surveillance and security tool, offered as part of the company's
growing menu of optional services. With SiteView, commercial,
industrial and governmental customers have the option to obtain a
high-definition camera system, owned, installed and maintained by
Georgia Power with no upfront cost. The service will also be
available to homeowner associations and multi-family residential
developments.
SiteView cameras are mounted on new or existing outdoor lighting
poles and the video is provided directly to the customer's on-site
video recorder or third-party cloud-based storage. Customers access
the video through a customized SiteView dashboard and Georgia Power
does not have access to the video feeds.
"We are always looking for ways to add value through new
products and services for our customers, and due to our experience
with street lights, poles and infrastructure, adding SiteView was a
natural fit for our customer portfolio," said Randy Young, products and services director for
Georgia Power. "Since customers own their video coverage, they can
quickly make it available to aid in law enforcement investigations,
insurance claims and to address security vulnerabilities."
Georgia Power's SiteView service is managed by Georgia Power
Lighting Services, which specializes in commercial, industrial and
residential outdoor lighting, maintaining and operating hundreds of
thousands of street and area lights across the state. The company
began piloting the service this spring in select areas of
Georgia and is now expanding the
service statewide.
SiteView is customizable based on customer needs, including an
optional license plate recognition capability. Monthly pricing for
SiteView varies based on the equipment and options the customer
chooses in order to customize each surveillance solution. To learn
