Telecom Lead America: NICE Systems announced that the Denver
Regional Transportation District (RTD), the public transit system for greater
metro Denver (CO), is expanding its implementation of NICE video
security solutions to the West Rail Line, Union Station, and the Denver Civic
Center.
The first two projects stem from Denver RTD’s FasTracks
plan, a major program which will extend Metro Denver’s entire mass transit
system.
“We are proud to see the long-standing relationship we
have with Denver RTD continuing to grow. This further expansion of the
NICE solutions complements the other parts of our portfolio already installed
at Denver RTD for addressing security, safety and operational risks,”
said Guy Yaniv, general manager, surveillance solutions, Security Group at
NICE.
In addition, Denver RTD also purchased the NICE IP
radio recording solution and NICE Inform, an information management solution
designed to capture, consolidate and manage voice, video, and other multimedia,
for complete debriefing and investigation.
Denver RTD has been a NICE customer since 2001 and with the
expansion, Denver RTD will use the NICE video surveillance solution to monitor,
manage and record more than one thousand video surveillance cameras at dozens
of light rail stations, Park-n-Ride facilities and bus transfer stations.
The Denver RTD Transit Police conducts over 5,000 video
investigations a year, and its 2,348-square mile service area encompasses 40
municipalities in six counties plus two city/county jurisdictions.
The Denver Police Department is also linked into
the system and can view live video feeds. Local law enforcement agencies
routinely use video from NiceVision for their investigations as well.
NiceVision has helped solve numerous crimes, both within the transit system and
off property.
Recently, NICE
showcased its integrated security solutions at ISC West 2012 in Las Vegas.
The company’s integrated security portfolio enables organizations to
efficiently and intelligently manage and control the complete incident
lifecycle.
