Indigovision Contracted By Qatar
Airways To Protect Doha
International Airport
IndigoVision’s complete IP Video solution is at the heart of a 600
camera CCTV surveillance system at the newly expanded Doha
International Airport (DIA) in Qatar.
As part of the preparations for DOHA 2006, the 15th Asian Games,
DIA expanded its main passenger terminal, added new first and
business class lounges and increased the capacity of its cargo
facilities. The existing analogue CCTV system was replaced with an
IndigoVision IP Video solution following an in-depth evaluation of
competing technologies by the IT department of Qatar Airways, the
managing authority for DIA.
“In our technical evaluation IndigoVision’s system scored 87%, well
ahead of the other systems tested,” said Sourav Sinha, Head of IT
Department at Qatar Airways. “We were particularly impressed with
IndigoVision’s ability to deliver very high quality video with minimal
bandwidth, its integration with the access control and alarm systems
and the powerful features of the video management software.”
The new system, installed by IndigoVision’s local partner Capital
Technology, provides security staff with centralised monitoring of the
whole airport complex from one control room located in the main
passenger terminal – the furthest camera being located some 5km
away. In addition there are satellite monitoring stations in the cargo
terminal and the new first and business class terminal. In total, 11
