Guayaquil Airport deploys AI-powered video security with Motorola Solutions
“ Technology is vitally important to maintaining the high service standards that have always characterised Guayaquil ’ s airport and to keeping our passengers , staff and air operations safe ,” said Ángel Córdova , General Manager at TAGSA . “ With our new video and access control management solution , we have been able to extend security to areas that were not previously covered while adding capabilities that allow our security staff to make more informed a nd efficient decisions .”
Motorola Solutions ’ Avigilon security cameras have been strategically installed across the airport to provide security personnel with eyes on critical locations . Video analytics can detect and notify personnel of anomalies that could signal unusual crowd activity , unauthorised access into restricted areas and other security threats such as unattended luggage .
Terminal Aeroportuaria de Guayaquil S . A , TAGSA , which manages the José Joaquín de Olmedo International Airport in the city of Guayaquil , has chosen Motorola Solutions ’ Avigilon Unity video security and access control solution to support safer , more efficient operations .
The AI-powered , on-premise security suite simplifies the administration of video and access control across multiple sites and allows security personnel to more easily share video clips to improve awareness and collaboration .
With its 180 hectares of area and an average of four million passengers annually , Guayaquil ’ s airport plays a crucial role as an international air traffic terminal connecting Ecuador with more than 15 international destinations . Avigilon Unity was chosen to help mitigate security threats common to international airports across the world , from petty theft and robbery to organised crime and terrorism .
Across expansive areas of the airport , thermal cameras have also been installed to improve nighttime visibility . These high-performance cameras can cover vast areas , detect unusual movements and locate possible intruders in restricted areas based on their heat signatures . This has significantly strengthened security and detection capabilities in critical areas with low lighting .
“ With Avigilon Unity , security staff at the Guayaquil Airport can more quickly and efficiently search and analyse live and recorded video ,” said Ulises Gomez , MSSSI Vice President and Director Sales , Video Security and Access Control for Motorola Solutions Latin America . “ This allows them to better detect , respond and investigate incidents as they are unfolding , increasing safety and security across the airport terminal and operations .” �
