MOBOTIX, an industry leading provider of high-resolution,
network-based security solutions, today announces that Calgary
Catholic School District deployed a comprehensive MOBOTIX
megapixel, IP-based surveillance solution as part of a system-wide
upgrade from analog to digital video security.
Calgary Catholic School District in Alberta, Canada, is home to
more than 45,000 students in 102 schools across the province. CCSD
replaced its analog video system with a network-based surveillance
solution to improve the protection of students, staff and visitors,
secure community events and future-proof overall security. The
district’s high schools are each equipped with up to 20 MOBOTIX
cameras. The MOBOTIX Q24 Hemispheric Camera is used to monitor
internal areas while the MOBOTIX D12 and M12 cameras are used in
outdoor applications.
The Q24 is a hemispheric 360-degree camera that offers a
simultaneous quad display of all four room corners and offers
digital continuous pan, tilt, zoom functionality. The M12 is a dual
camera that provides brilliant image and color quality in the day
and high sensitivity at night, thanks to two separate image sensors
for color and B/W, while the D12 includes two individually
positioned sensors and two separately directional lenses to
simultaneously monitor different areas.
“We obtained huge operational improvements at a significant cost
savings with the networked surveillance solution from MOBOTIX,”
said Al Berting, Manager of Operations, Calgary Catholic School
District. “We’ve also experienced real-world results. After
installing the cameras in high-risk areas, we noticed a significant
reduction in vandalism and therefore, an immediate
return-on-investment.”
Calgary Catholic School District selected MOBOTIX because of its
decentralized approach to surveillance technology. Each camera
incorporates a high-speed computer and internal flash memory card
(SD/MicroSD card) to enable all recording and storage to occur
within the camera, reducing the need for a separate PC or DVR. The
school district also installed MxControlCenter, a professional
video management software package that connects any number of
cameras at any location with centralized or local, user-based
operation and evaluation.
“The process of securing a campus environment is challenging and
it is rewarding to see how growing school districts benefit greatly
from the efficiencies provided by IP-based surveillance,” said
Steve Gorski, General Manager, Americas, MOBOTIX. “The solution
delivered to Calgary Catholic School District is a perfect example
of how an innovative use of high-resolution, networked surveillance
can provide higher video quality, reduced upfront costs, quicker
investigations and peace-of-mind.”
