Airport Surveillance from Viseum
Viseum Airport F3 (Find, Fix, and Follow) Software Technology Services
- Viseum’s Airport Surveillance Systems fully optimise any network of cameras. Automatically detect, recognise, and follow people from short range to long range. At greater distances than any other Airport Security System.
- Reliably detect with 4 times greater accuracy than any other Airport Surveillance System. In real-world deployments.
- Automatically create and grow your secure database of people, vehicles and watchlists. From matching and following just a few hundred people and vehicles. To recognising many millions in real time.
Viseum Airport Surveillance Systems automatically detect multiple incidents in all directions at the same time. Viseum’s Airport Surveillance and Security Systems also operate completely automatically. Following suspects and confirm incidents. With high-quality close-up video, even before the alarm is raised. These Airport Security Systems automatically report incidents for rapid response and investigations.
Meanwhile, the appearance of Viseum’s Intelligent Airport Surveillance Cameras protects the airport. This deters criminals because they believe that operators watch every airport surveillance camera constantly.
Intelligent surveillance camera for high security airports
Airport surveillance systems across the whole estate
Viseum UK provides the most effective Airport Security Systems. Covering both Perimeter Surveillance and all movement within areas of an airport. Optimised Airport Security use the Viseum Intelligent 360 Security Camera, which contains multiple cameras built inside a single unit. Providing complete panoramic coverage in any direction up to 360°. Each Viseum camera in an airport carries the required number of wide contextual view surveillance cameras. For covering the designated areas.
Optimised configuration examples of Airport Surveillance:
- 6 wide contextual view cameras and 1 PTZ Camera for full 360° coverage. Deployed onto airport camera columns.
- 5 wide contextual view cameras and 1 PTZ Camera for 300° coverage. Deployed onto corners of buildings, or airport security lighting columns.
- 3 wide contextual view cameras and 1 PTZ Camera for 180° coverage. Deployed onto the side of airport buildings.
Example Airport Security Systems:
Airport Security Camera Systems protecting 3 airport terminals and 50 aircraft gates.
Airport Surveillance Extended Thermal surveillance system coverage suits each project with distances out to 62 km.
Viseum iVOS (Intelligent Virtual Operator Software)
This makes better use of airport security personnel. It also reduces the need to train security staff for routine monitoring tasks. Viseum’s iVOS Software Technology Services monitor every camera installed on the network. Analysing incidents, it automatically controls the PTZ Camera to follow, confirm, record and report incidents. The software also performs key but mundane tasks, such as:
- What airport activity to monitor.
- When to monitor the airport for incidents.
- Where to monitor for airport incidents.
- What responses should follow what types of airport incidents.
Airport Security and Surveillance Threat Management Systems
If potential intruders approach the airport perimeter fence line. Or if they breach the airport perimeter fence. Viseum’s PTZ Camera automatically zooms into and follows them. The system then displays close-up video automatically on surveillance monitors for security response. When the airport’s perimeter intrusion detection system (PIDS) registers a breach. Viseum’s iVOS F3 (Find, Fix and Follow) Software Technology Services automatically track intruders. From where they breach the perimeter and circulate. This software will also track the intruders through the airport terminal buildings using the airport’s internal cameras. Tracking them when they move from one camera to another. It will re-identify them if they temporarily disappear and then reappear on other cameras.
More than one intruder can enter the coverage of a single Viseum IMC. Viseum software tracks them all. It controls the PTZ Camera to zoom in, follow and switch between intruders automatically. Throughout the incident, the intruders’ locations and close-up video images reach the control room automatically. Suspects may enter certain areas. Security personnel may not follow the correct procedures. In both cases the system automatically notifies the head of security. To start escalation procedures.
For example, when the incident has finished, investigators use the surveillance video for a rapid investigation. Viseum software systems take images of intruders and track their movements automatically. Viseum’s face recognition software automatically investigates if the intruders had visited the site before to plan their crime.
Airport Security Baggage System
Our approach for airport security baggage is to visually follow the traveller and the traveller’s baggage. The system shows when the baggage is with the traveller, and when it leaves for the aircraft’s baggage hold. This tracking uses visual biometrics and cross-checks references with other control devices. It links the traveller, the traveller’s location and the traveller’s baggage. So the traveller and the baggage meet again automatically at the final destination.
This solves many airport security baggage problems and security risks. Including preventing a traveller’s baggage so the wrong person cannot collect it. Or tampered with. For example, terrorism, mistakes, or theft.

Airport surveillance systems that reduce operator workload
Airport surveillance systems fail when there are more cameras than people to watch them. So ours decide for themselves where to look closely, and they escalate only what matters. A single mast covers an apron, a car park or a perimeter arc that once needed several fixed cameras.
Airport operators and government advisors weigh three questions. Firstly, will this detect an intrusion before it reaches airside? Secondly, how many false alarms will the control room absorb each night? Thirdly, what does the system cost to staff and maintain over a decade? So we answer each from live installations.
Landside, airside and the perimeter
Each zone creates a different problem. For example a terminal forecourt fills with vehicles and crowds, while a boundary fence runs for miles across open ground. Thermal detection also extends cover far beyond the reach of a colour camera at night. Meanwhile the same software handles all three zones, so the control room learns one interface rather than three.
Meeting regulation and proving compliance
Aviation regulators expect records rather than assurances. So every automatic detection and every operator action carries a timestamp. The monthly reporting also shows response times and incident trends across a full year. In short, an audit becomes an exercise in printing what the system already holds.
What airport surveillance systems cost to run
Staffing dominates the whole-life cost at every airport we have worked with. A security manager also has to fund operators through the night. Because our cameras confirm the cause of an alarm themselves, a small team supervises a very large estate. We also upgrade the PTZ cameras and recorders an airport already owns, which protects earlier investment. This reflects established practice in airport security.
Working alongside your existing airport systems
Most airports already run a mix of recorders, access control and perimeter sensors. So our airport surveillance systems speak open standards instead of a private protocol. The software can also drive the PTZ cameras you already own. So an upgrade rarely means ripping anything out.
Firstly we survey each proposed mast position and model its true coverage. Secondly we test power and communications at that point. Thirdly we run a live trial, often from a trailer, before anyone commits capital. So the business case rests on evidence from your own site rather than on our promises.
