Another example of a Powerfield construction site being monitored
Construction sites often require video monitoring to secure the area and prevent vandalism or theft. Kooi Camera Surveillance equips such sites with temporary video surveillance solutions. The company provides customers – such as solar farm developer Powerfield – with mobile masts fitted with high-tech video cameras. The solutions capture footage while a remote monitoring team responds when an alarm is triggered.
Proof of concept to find the best fit
Costly, complicated false alarms had become a major pain point for Kooi. The company set out to find a new video camera partner that offers an intelligent video camera concept. A proof of concept ensured the solution selected would lower the number of false alarms Kooi had been facing. Their requirements for the new solution were clear:
- Reduction of false alarms “on the edge”
- Fast detection and good low light performance
- Easy configuration and remote commissioning
- Genetec integration
Bosch video cameras emerged as the winner. They reduce false alarms even in challenging weather conditions. Reliable on-the-edge Intelligent Video Analytics (IVA) ensures minimal data usage.
Seamless Genetec integration & best-in-class security
Before selecting a camera provider, Kooi had already chosen Genetec software for alarm controls. The chosen cameras not only support Genetec technology, but also seamlessly integrate it into the ecosystem. This means cameras and alarm processing are fully in sync for a streamlined security solution. Moreover, the cameras are designed to uphold high security standards, keeping the data they capture safe and sound.
Clients rave about video surveillance that “always works”
Kooi’s client Powerfield immediately noticed the benefits of the upgraded mobile masts with new video cameras. “The image quality of the FLEXIDOME cameras is really good,” says Henk Haaksma from Powerfield. “Thanks to live viewing of images I can check in anytime, anywhere. The AI delicately filters out unnecessary alarms. If something serious happens, the operator sees it, understands it, and responds immediately. It just always works.” Henk Haaksema is satisfied with overall solution.
A partnership built on trust
Success of this rollout didn’t happen by chance. It was built on a strong partnership with Kooi. The team worked closely with Kooi from day one—listening, adjusting, and ensuring the solution truly met their needs. Kooi didn’t just get a product, but a partner who supports them, today and tomorrow.
