GeoVision Mobile Surveillance System Deployed for Bus System of Brazil

Posted May 27th, 2010 in Geovision, Surveillance News.  


A Geovision surveillance system was recently chosen by the bus system of Brazil as the mobile solution to monitor the buses with video surveillance. Being the world-renowned tourist city, as well as the most enormous bus network inside of the greatest country in South America, there are over 2,000 buses everyday commuting to and from the metro and the suburban area. The bus system of Brazil provides massive group of commuters mean of transportation in the city of Rio de Janeiro. Under such heavy traffic demand, efficient yet effective management of operation of buses becomes an inevitable issue among buses industry.

In each day, the major bus company dispatches an average between 200 and 500 buses into streets and alleys. Due to the high frequency of bus traffic, uncertainty of regulated driving by the drivers, injuries of passengers within trips, etc can often cause unnecessary monetary loss. Among the hidden distresses, the greatest being the loss of transportation fees. Any tiny amount of loss, inadequacy drivers’ operation, when applied onto a great bus system, transform into sizable financial losses.

By installing the high resolution Geovision mobile video server, keeping track of complete driving record, suspicions of the past are thus resolved. The GV-Video Server provide each bus 2-4 channels of recorded screens, monitoring all road-surface traffic situations, passengers conditions in cabin, as well as ticketing procedures of driver during vehicle operation. Among the advantages, the greatest being the resolution of Full D1 Real Time, making any resource of replay video, easily and clearly recognizable.

According to one satisfied bus company owner of Rio, upon installing the GV-Video Server, the amount of losses saving had decreased ever-so dramatically, that the group was able to purchase one additional brand-new bus, in a period of miniscule 3-8 weeks. This, within a city of ultra-stringent bus examination standard, requiring by law that all metro buses are demanded to retire upon a period of 3-year span is met, brought unimaginable financial value to the owners of industry.
