The Maryland Police Department, MPD, has been presented with a Homeland Security Award as a result of their partnership with video surveillance solutions provider 8011 Hikvision.
Presented by Government Security News, the award was given to MPD in the Most Notable Law Enforcement Interdiction, Arrest, Counterterrorism or Crime Prevention Program category.
MPD’s use of video surveillance to protect the city of Memphis includes nearly 600 Hikvision cameras, many of which have smart features such as line crossing and intrusion detection that enable the cameras to send instant alerts to police officers when someone enters or leaves a designated area.
Cameras are mounted on mobile trailers and utility poles, sending data to MPD’s Real Time Crime Center (RTCC), where a video wall displays live streams from cameras throughout the city. The RTCC incorporates customised software that provides information on criminal activity and crime patterns.
“We have been excited to use video surveillance and other state-of-the-art technologies to better serve the people of Memphis, and we are honoured to be recognised for our efforts by Government Security News,” remarked Sergeant Joseph Patty, video surveillance manager for MPD.
Jeffrey He, president of Hikvision USA and Hikvision Canada, said, “We are very pleased that the Memphis Police Department has seen such a great benefit from their Hikvision video surveillance solution and we extend our congratulations to the Memphis Police Department on their award.”
