Surveillance system at Museums




 

  
"Museums store historical proof of nation and deliver loyal heritage to coming generations. Protecting priceless objects is a particularly tough challenge for public museums and galleries. These institutions face the conflicting dilemma of keeping objects safe, yet allowing millions of visitors a chance to see them,"

Monitoring activity in museums, where extremely valuable collections are stored and display, is a necessary undertaking. High-priced works of art  are prime targets for theft. The proper video surveillance system can go a long   way in protecting a museum's collections from acts of thievery and vandalism.

Surveillance system plays a very important part in discouraging prospective burglars and their activities.  "All museums should have identification cameras and monitors at each entrance. Visitors and staff entering and leaving the building are monitored via CCTVsurveillance cameras. This setup must be accompanied by a monitor, where the entrant clearly sees his or her image in a monitor. Thieves and robbers frequently pay a complicated visit in advance. If they realize they have already been filmed they might be discouraged from any plans of thievery."  


Benefits:

Simple installation:  IP (Internet Protocol) surveillance technology offers easy-to-install systems with outstanding flexibility. Cameras can be positioned throughout the museum, communicating through an IP network with no need for complicated wiring setups.


Remote access:  An NVR (network video recorder) allows for remote viewing over the Internet. Security workers can monitor surveillance footage and even control security cameras from any computer with Internet access.

Restrict theft:  Security cameras can tightly monitor display areas, storage rooms, and other locations throughout a museum, watching for suspicious activity and potential theft.

Monitor employee theft:  The threat of employee theft exists. Video surveillance keeps a close watch on all areas of a museum, and can deter employees from turning to the dark side.


Prevent vandalism:  Unfortunately, defacement of art can be a problem in a museum, where pieces are displayed right within the public's reach. Security cameras can deter such acts of vandalism and enable workers to spot potential threats.


Conclusion:


With the advanced surveillance system, Museums will have a fully integrated video system that provides a good overview of the building and the surrounding public area. All images will be transmitted to the NVR servers via the IP network and stored. Images can be followed in real time on the video wall, and configured in a flexible way. Images can also be quickly called up and combined in the event of an incident. With this new environment, museums will have a flexible and scalable video system, which will make it possible to quickly implement future developments or extensions.
