"We are pleased to host this group of senior airport executives and show them the benefits of our advanced security operations center that features the Avigilon control center network video management software," said Diego Rincon, Assistant Director of Aviation with the City of Dallas, Department of Aviation.
The Love Field Modernization Program (LFMP) will renovate and expand Dallas Love Field airport, creating a cohesive, modern facility that will serve the needs of Dallas citizens and travelers for many years to come. The LFMP renovations include a new centralized concourse with 20 gates, a remodeled lobby, expanded baggage claim area and a new ticketing wing.
The modernization program also includes the installation of a new HD surveillance system from Avigilon. The first phase of the modernization program included the replacement of two existing surveillance systems with the Avigilon HD surveillance system, the installation of encoders to leverage the airport's existing 80 analog cameras, and the addition of more than 40 new Avigilon megapixel HD cameras. Future phases will replace all analog cameras with new megapixel cameras, add hundreds of new megapixel cameras, and eliminate the two remaining separate surveillance systems.
"Before the launch of the modernization program, Love Field had four separate video surveillance systems which made it challenging for law enforcement to monitor activities and airport officials to maintain these systems. The Love Field modernization program is transforming the Dallas Love Field airport into a benchmark for best practices in airport efficiency, service, and security," said Dave Tynan, VP of Global Sales and Marketing for Avigilon. "We are honored to have the opportunity to also showcase the benefits of the Avigilon HD surveillance system to the delegation of Latin American airport executives."
The network video management platform, Avigilon control center was engineered from the ground up to intelligently manage HD video, delivering both situational awareness and complete image detail. Avigilon control center captures, transmits, manages, stores, archives, plays back, and exports HD video while efficiently handling bandwidth and storage. Control center's modular, open architecture allows system designers to integrate Avigilon solutions with existing assets including analog and network cameras, access control and other intrusion systems.
