CHALLENGE: INCREASE SECURITY AND IMPROVE OPERATIONS
Auto dealership have several outlets across the country. Selling new and as well as pre-owned inventory and have full sales, service, and parts departments. With over 100 people coming through each of their doors, it sees as many as over 3000 people each month at each door. The security and operational challenges are enormous, and the auto security dispatch receives over 1000 calls for service every month for each outlet.
Auto dealership instals a wide range of surveillance technologies to cover all its locations. The Auto dealership has more than 100 video cameras. The Auto dealership upgraded its video surveillance system to achieve more effective video recording and management, however this failed to address the challenge of how to review and analyse hours of footage and turn the video data into actionable information.
SOLUTION
Auto dealership selected VDOintel for rapid review, search and analysis of the vast amount of video recorded daily at the Auto Dealership. VDOintel was integrated into the Auto Dealerships video management software, enabling the Auto dealership to handle security and safety in a more efficient, accurate and proactive way.
The VDOintel solution is enabled the Auto dealership to review hours of video in a matter of minutes, as well as helping address operational issues such as finding unauthorized people in restricted areas, and identifying cars driving against traffic around their properties.
The ability to rapidly pinpoint objects by appearance such as people, vehicles, size and colour, and refine the search by behaviour of these objects such as direction, speed or path, has helped the Auto dealership address the wide-ranging requirements of the different profiles of users reviewing video.
THE RESULTS
- EASE OF USE
VDOintel is seamlessly integrated into the Auto dealerships Video Monitoring System and is accessible at the click of a tab.
- IMPROVED EFFICIENCY
An hour of video is viewed in a minute, freeing the Auto Dealership staff to focus on other important tasks.
- FASTER TIME-TO-TARGET
A trespasser tried to enter the Auto dealership unnoticed by the onsite guard. The cameras detected movement and we saw him crawling under the trucks to steal batteries. By the time security was notified, he was missing. Cameras covering paths of the trespasser were selected for review using VDOIntel. Within minutes, security discovered that the man had walked to a nearby metro station stop. The transit police were contacted and ensured he was arrested.
