IndigoVision upgrades UK hotel’s CCTV system

Feb. 11, 2009
Project seamlessly integrates both IP and analog video technology

IndigoVision, one of the world’s leading developers of IP video technology, recently provided a new IP video system to one the UK’s top hotels, the London Marriot Hotel in Kensington.

Looking to expand upon its surveillance capability and still use its existing analog system, the 7 storey, 216-room London hotel decided to integrate the IndigoVision solution into its existing CCTV infrastructure. To help manage system, the London Marriot utilizes Control Center, IndigoVision’s video and alarm management software, which provides them with a "suite of tools for viewing and analyzing" video, according to a statement issued by the UK-based IP video company.

"The IndigoVision system provides us with an excellent tool for monitoring the security of the hotel. The video quality is superb and the facilities of the video management software are far superior to what was achievable with the old CCTV system," Marriott Hotel Chief Engineer Jim Fraser said in the statement. "The analysis tools allow us to quickly identify recorded footage of an incident, even well after the fact. Following a recent hit-and-run incident on one of our driveways, we were able to quickly identify the relevant footage and export evidential quality video for the Police."
