The main objective of the system installation project is to control the facility perimeter and automate the vehicle entry checkpoint by using automatic license plate number recognition for all vehicles entering the facility and exiting from it.
Vehicle entry control is automated using the license plate number recognition module of the Axxon software suite. The recognition results are used for granting or denying the entry in automatic or manual mode. The results are also archived and can later be used to analyze vehicle traffic. The Koshkin Design Bureau intends to use the software module to invoice premises tenants for vehicle entry. Combined with the access control system based on the Rubezh-08 equipment by Sigma IS, the client thus has a fully automatic vehicle entry control system.
The enterprise's vast area and extensive distances between its individual facilities were the biggest challenges of the project. Unimax specialists came up with the optimal solution employing state-of-the-art information technology. The solution is based on Axxon suite's ability to work with both analog and IP devices. Axis video encoders were installed at two most remote facilities. These encode the signal from analog cameras and transmit it via LAN to a video server with the Axxon software onboard.
The LAN to remote facilities was built using optical fiber cables which help connect facilities several tens of kilometers away and ensure distortion-free signal transmission. Hardened Etherwan switches were used to connect the remote facilities which can operate at below-zero temperatures and were thus the equipment of choice for the project. Panduit optical fiber components with the OptiCam technology helped quickly lay the cables and saved the costly fusion splicing operations. The client used the cables' vacant optical fibers to set up a network and provide broadband services to premises tenants.
In all, 32 Panasonic high-resolution and high-sensitivity cameras with varifocal lenses were installed at the enterprise. The camera's view angle can be adjusted during installation and operation. To provide license plate number recognition, state-of-the-art Panasonic analog cameras were installed which offer unique working parameters and can be operated in severe environment. The system as a whole is based on a highly reliable video server stationed in the server room and connected to several automated security service workstations, including the central security station, vehicle entry checkpoint PC, entrance checkpoint PC, security service head PC, etc.
Employees and visitors access control is crucial for the security of strategic facilities. Given the variety of threats, security of most successful entities is a vital priority. The Koshkin Automatic Lines Design Bureau is most certainly among such entities and its management therefore pays special attention to security.
