Upgrading IP CCTV Surveillance
for Metropolitan Washington, D.C.
The Metrorail in Washington, D.C.,
provides reliable transit service for 700,000
customers a day. The system is the
second busiest in the United States, and
is very efficient since it is possible to travel
between any two of 86 stations with at
most one transfer.
The Washington Metropolitan Area Transit
Authority (WMATA) needed to upgrade
each of its subway cars to IP-based
video with audio surveillance. In total, 175
subway cars would need five cameras per
car. The cameras must be able to operate
in subzero temperatures since the cars
could be stored overnight in dark cold
tunnels at temperatures as low as -25°C.
Location: Washington, D.C.
