Sydney Trains, which provides railway services in the city of Sydney and surrounding area, has awarded 509 Indra a contract valued at around US$52.6 million to modernise the railway network video surveillance system, using state-of-the-art technology. The project is expected to be completed within five years and includes maintenance for three years.
Indra will fully equip two control centres using closed-circuit television (CCTV) in a network of over 150 commuter stations, and will install state-of-the-art operation and control software. It will also replace the current 11,400 analog cameras with IP cameras that will be connected to the existing trunk communications network via a new network to be deployed in the stations. Indra will also supply the servers and storage devices for recording images during the period stipulated by the client.
The new system allows operators to view each camera image in real time from any computer, tablet or cell phone connected to the network.
The software also includes algorithms that continuously analyse the station camera images to automatically detect potentially dangerous incidents and automatically generates an alarm.
