The Unique Needs of Municipalities
From the largest city to the most rural community, municipalities face the challenge of protecting citizens and property with limited resources. Arecont Vision understands the unique needs of municipalities and provides megapixel technology to specifically meet those needs.

Crime Statistics

Brawls in the city center, homicide on railway platforms, or suitcase bomb attacks. In Germany, such criminal acts may not happen on a day to day basis, but neither are they rare occurrences. Video cameras recording what is going on in public places act as a deterrent to potential perpetrators. With their visual evidence, they also ensure that many of the culprits can be quickly identified and arrested.
