Thermal video analytic cameras are rapidly becoming the new standard for securing outdoor assets. Now that smart thermal camera prices have fallen below the $5,000 MSRP price barrier, one of the most fundamental security functions – theft prevention – can now be addressed economically using sophisticated thermal camera solutions.

There are millions of miles of oil and gas pipelines that are critical to the world economy. A lot depends on the safe and environmentally sound operation of networks of pipelines spanning long distances through remote areas and varied terrain.

Although many different factors can impact the accuracy of perimeter security systems, today’s intelligent video surveillance systems can help you to eliminate false and nuisance alarms and increase trust in your intrusion solution in a number of ways.

The U.S. Department of Homeland Security's Chemical Facility Anti-Terrorism Standards (CFATS) were designed to provide guidance for any site involved in manufacturing, storing and/or transporting chemicals.

For perimeter security applications covering large outdoor areas, thermal video analytic cameras with greater detection range offer significant economic advantages.

To realize the full capabilities of outdoor thermal imagery, a camera must reveal what the human eye would miss.

Achieving effective security over perimeters and outdoor areas often comes down to detection accuracy and solution cost. While there are a number of options available for perimeter security, thermal video analytic cameras have become a strong contender for best-of-breed in this arena.
