What is Event Control Room

Mobile operations workplace where all information related to event’s safety are gathered in real time, evaluated and then distributed to all concerned units.

Risks Prevention

Control room primarily serves to prevent and eliminate hazardous and dangerous situations.

Current Overview

It helps also during event management. It always provides the organizer with actual overview of what is happening.

Coordination of Emergency and Police Forces

It helps to distribute current information and coordinate activity of emergency and police forces at the event in real time.

Crisis Situations Solution

Control Room is technologically and spatially prepared to provide possibility of managing and solving a crisis situation in case of exceptional occurrence at an event.

Control Room Technical Specification

While designing Control Room, we focused on its ability to endure the most critical situations, systems and networks breakdowns, overloads, complex areas and event venues. Therefore, together with our technological partners, we have invested a lot of time and resources to make our product capable of bringing your event the highest possible quality, technological novelties and gadgets, and at the same time that it is able to function also when all other technologies at your event have failed.

CCTV Security Cameras

We use Avigilon and Dahua security cameras. These cameras are fixed cameras with wide-angle (dome) lens, PTZ (rotating) cameras with zoom (20x – 45x) and also thermal cameras for large perimeters monitoring. The minimal resolution of the cameras is Full HD; some of them also have resolution higher than 4K.

Network connections

For wire and wireless cross-linking of the cameras we use professional Mikrotik and Ubiquiti switches, routers and wireless antennas. We do not have a problem to send the signal also across hundreds of metres, through trees or thin obstacles. At clear visibility we are able to link our cameras up to more than 10 km. The whole radio spectrum is constantly monitored. We monitor the antennas output and transmittance and thanks to this we can guarantee high-quality and fast wireless connections also in very jammed areas where many wireless components are turned on.

Call Centre

In regard to high-quality and redundant Internet connection, we can guarantee more than 99.8% functionality of the Call Centre. It contains five lines on VoIP basis. All Call Centre calls can be recorded and in case of any incident, we are able to forward a call recording to the relevant authorities or institutions within few seconds. In case of massive breakdown of Internet connection, at least one line, so called “red line”, is able to work. It serves explicitly for communication with police and emergency forces

Internet and Power Supply Connection

We realize that crisis situations during events are often related to Internet connection, mobile signal and power supply breakdown. We have 5-6 times bigger backup of the Internet connection with the function of aggregating and bonding of the individual lines. This secures stable Internet connection with sufficient speed for using e.g. VoIP telephones in situations when mobile phones do not work. Power supply is designed through special power supply distributor with consumption and voltage measurement in the grid, backup UPS with high capacity batteries and also with small emergency generators that can be used in case of longer power supply blackout.

Video Analysis and Recording

The whole Control Room is set up on powerful server with Avigilon ACC7 Enterprise software equipment. That allows us to distribute camera signal and image to various workplaces based on clients’ requirements, including signal and image distribution to operation centres of emergency police forces, and camera image viewing into mobile phones of selected members of the organization team, etc. Most of our cameras have intelligent video analysis that allows Control Room operators effectively monitor and evaluate the safety situation within the selected area (perimeter breach, unusual movement, leaving the area, abandoning a subject, etc.) Data from the security cameras are recorded onto a server that has redundant hard discs with overall capacity of 24 TB, and specifically designed for making camera recordings.

Easy Installation and Flexibility

All Control Room technologies are suitable and designed for various use at outdoor and indoor events. All technologies are located in transport packages (road cases), so they can be transported also in more difficult conditions and long journeys. Cameras and wireless antennas fixation is flexible and ready for mounting at various places (stands, aluminium structures, layher scaffolding, tents, public lighting poles, roofs of buildings, etc.)
