Security requirements at airports are extremely high and it is vital that every area is being monitored, including hangars, car parks, terminal and access roads, runways, the apron and the perimeter. The Airport Operators Association (AOA) and ITN Productions have made a news and current affairs-style program entitled ‘Airport Matters 2017’, which features stories from the aviation industry and explores the challenges, procedures and future of security matters in aviation and at airports.
Nowadays airside and landside security is a hot topic and airport operators look for the latest technologies to identify, analyze and proactively resolve dubious situations in time. Dallmeier offers a range of flexible solutions for multi area surveillance and, in the movie produced by AOA and ITN they showcase the Dallmeier Panomera multifocal sensor technology in operation at Bristol Airport.
This program – available on YouTube at https://youtu.be/qRHPIzGC788 – features special reports about airport security and explains why and how monitoring our airspace becomes more and more important in order to protect travelers, their belongings (such as parked cars and baggage) as well as airport employees. The essential component of the manufacturer’s video solution is the Panomera multifocal sensor system, which provides a comprehensive overview of all activity around the airport.

Proactive Surveillance
In conjunction with intelligent video analysis and management systems, the monitoring of the landside and airside areas contributes significantly to the overall safety and security of visitors and passengers, as well as maintaining smooth operations across the airport. Proactive video monitoring provided by such video information systems, instead of just passive surveillance, is the way forward across different industries – and especially airports.
