Hikvision protects water and power distribution authority (WAPDA) in pakistan

The Water and Power Distribution Authority (WAPDA) in Lahore, Pakistan, has installed 500 Hikvision security surveillance cameras for the different WAPDA power stations and offices. Project background: WAPDA is a government-owned public utility company that maintains and distributes power and water in Pakistan. Its headquarter is in WAPDA House, a nine-story office building in Lahore that accommodates all WAPDA offices. WAPDA House is one of several prominent government buildings located on Lahore Mall Road, sharing views of the Punjab Provincial Assembly, the Islamic Summit Minar, and other key landmarks. WAPDA House and other WAPDA Power Stations also house heavy and expensive machinery, and installation of Hikvision CCTV cameras would help to ensure employees, or public intruders do not tamper with the equipment. In addition to this, surveillance of offices in the headquarters, and the various Power Station locations, would also ensure that employees follow laid out codes of conduct. The security surveillance solution: Nashuatec Centre, system integrator for this project, together with the WAPDA Security Surveillance consultants conducted a site survey of all sub-offices and Power Stations to assess WAPDA’s surveillance needs. Areas that needed immediate security surveillance solutions included the WAPDA Hydel Power Stations in Rasul, Nandipur – Gujranwala and Shadiwal – Gujrat; and the Khan Khwar, Allai Khwar and Duber Khwar Power Stations. These power stations had no pre-existing security surveillance, so a surveillance solution comprising of more than 500 security surveillance cameras including Network IR Speed Dome DS-2DF8236I-AEL and IR Bullet Network Camera DS-2CD2022-I were assembled, and keeping in mind the key requirements as: Ultra-low light visibility for night surveillance Wide dynamic range to monitor large areas High resolution footage, Rewind options and Optical zoom to be able to view and identify faces Smart tracking Object detection Infrared capabilities Network compatibility Each sub-office has one control room for 24 hours security surveillance with technical personnel present to handle the surveillance. The 16-channel DS-7616NI NVR was used for local recording. Why Hikvision’s products: The system integrator Nashuatec Centre and end user client choose to use Hikvision CCTV surveillance products because the products provide an economical surveillance solution. “Hikvision products provide high quality solutions that meet our surveillance needs.” WAPDA commented. “Hikvision IP cameras provide enhanced resolution images and fine definition and clarity even when we zoom in to pre-recorded footage. This is very helpful in detecting and identifying vandalism culprits at our sites.” WAPDA team added. Commenting on behalf of Hikvision, the installation team noted that the project was trouble-free thanks to the high-tech mechanized services and pioneering surveillance products.  Now, the systems can monitor the areas clearly and detect security risks before they occur. www.hikvision.com

The DC-Y6513RX installer and end-user requests for a more compact 360° camera, able to capture high-definition images in all lighting conditions without blind spots, and the ability to benefit from heat mapping without the hassle and cost of additional appliances or analytics software. A broad, high-specification camera, in a compact form factor, the new DirectIP 5MP IR Compact Fisheye is a as powerful as it is reliable and affordable, and, as a compact model with features and functionality previously only seen in the significantly larger 12MP Super Fisheye model, the DC-Y6513RX can be easily installed to meet the widest range of surveillance requirements. As is signature with all IDIS’s Super Fisheye cameras, the 5MP Compact Fisheye meets industry demands for clear and accurate image capture, and, as with all IDIS cameras, has been developed to meet demand for outstanding image capture, long-term performance and reliability, exceptional dewarping, and a low total cost of ownership. Noted Keith Drummond, Senior Director of IDIS America, “The IDIS Super Fisheye 5MP Compact is a great new choice for wide area surveillance, able to replace multiple fixed-lens cameras by providing complete and clear image capture in a variety of lighting conditions. For our integrator partners, IDIS’s seamless installations and performance guarantees have the potential to increase margins, and end-users benefit from savings in terms of lower upfront equipment and installation costs, with reduced maintenance costs and video storage burden.” The IDIS 5MP IR Compact Fisheye features: ·         IDIS Smart UX Controls for very high accuracy and ease-of-use, with intuitive “rubber-band” style control to deliver a new level of operator experience. ·         Super smooth de-warping on the camera as well as on desktop applications and mobile devices for added convenience and out-of-hours monitoring. ·         Quick Controls allowing operators to use the CTRL button with a combination of left, right, and wheel mouse clicks for easier and faster investigations. ·         Full protection against video loss thanks to built-in Smart Failover guaranteeing continued recording in the event of network instability, overload or failure.  ·         IDIS Intelligent Codec that delivers H.264/H.265 dual codec performance and significant bandwidth and storage savings, while eliminating the need to upgrade hardware. ·         Quick and simple installation with DirectIP NVRs and true plug-and-play functionality. ·         Reduced potential for cybersecurity loopholes with one-click configuration eliminating the need to manage individual passwords for multiple devices. ·         Heat-mapping to more easily identify hot-spots, dead zones and bottlenecks in retail and eating-out sectors. ·         Intelligent video and event trigger functions including motion detection, active tampering and trip zones. As further noted by Drummond, “The IDIS Super Fisheye 5MP Compact camera also scores highly on essential features including, built-in LEDs for IR operation in full darkness (up to 15m); 8 zone privacy masking; true wide dynamic range; ONVIF support; built-in speakers and microphone allowing 2-way communications; industry-leading five-year free warranty. All these factors come together to deliver a lower cost of ownership to our customers.” The IDIS total solution offers an end-to-end, single sourced offering that delivers unrivalled plug-and-play simplicity, combined with highest-quality performance, compatibility, and a low total cost of ownership and now features the longest recorder warranty in the industry. www.idisglobal.com
