Review

Accelerate Investigations

By leveraging the REVIEW capabilities, users can pinpoint objects and events of interest to advance investigations and powerfully accelerate time to target. This solution supports effective case management, so investigators can organize video
assets, bookmark objects of interest, summarize case findings, and export reports, while dynamically collaborating on cases with other users.

With REVIEW, operators can review hours of video in minutes and refine search results through filter tolerance as well as density, speed, direction, and sort controls. REVIEW enables functions including:
• Cross-camera video search and filtering, based on an ever-expanding set of object classes and attributes.
• Visual layers, which presents activity, dwell time, common paths, and background changes as easily readable heatmaps for increased scene understanding.
• The patented BriefCam VIDEO SYNOPSIS®
solution, which simultaneously presents objects that have appeared at different times within the video, resulting in a dramatically shorter video segment that fully preserves the viewer’s ability to analyze the scene.

RESPOND

Attain Situational Awareness

With BriefCam RESPOND you can trigger real-time alerts based on complex object classification and recognition filter combinations to increase situational awareness and deliver critical, time-sensitive intelligence. RESPOND empowers you to react to events as they unfold, from proactively protecting people and property to driving better visitor or customer engagement as opportunities arise.

BriefCam allows for improved responsiveness, real-time decision-making, and effective balancing of sensitivity, accuracy and efficiency with alerting rule configuration, face and license plate watchlist management, and alert notifications for messaging services and VMS alarm areas, including integration with Genetec Security Center, Milestone
XProtect, Axis ACS, IndigoVision Control Center, Qognify Ocularis, Digifort Enterprise, and Verint EVMS.

Frequently Asked Questions

Isn’t mobile satellite service very expensive?

The cost of mobile satellite service has come down tremendously over the past 10 years. In the past this service could only be purchased as a “full-time” service and would cost over a thousand dollars a month for very minimum bandwidth. Fortunately with advances in technology satellite service has gotten better in terms of bandwidth speeds and quality while the price has come down tremendously. With our partners at IP Access, CCS has been able to develop several Disaster Response Packages that allow our First Responder customers to buy 5 or 10 day per month packages that can provide burstable speeds from 20 mbps down to 5 mbps up for just a few hundred dollars per month. For our Commercial customers we can also provide metered service plans based on their network needs that are very affordable.

Do I really need satellite service with the availability of LTE and FirstNet?

All of the LTE service providers have made great strides in coverage and network speeds and the roll out of the FirstNet Network with Band 14 has been a tremendous asset for First Responders. Most service providers have deployable COWs (cellular units on wheels) that they can deploy during and after a disaster to help keep service up and FirstNet has a fleet of COLTs that provide this same service free of charge for their customers. Despite all of this LTE technology and network redundancy, bad things can still happen. Wildfires and hurricanes can take out cell towers and during that down time that it takes a LTE service provider to deploy their mobile assets, a First Responder could be caught without communications. Satellite service fills that void and provides that life line that should allow the user to always connect and communicate regardless of local assets. Please be very skeptical of anyone that tells you that you will always have LTE coverage. Can you hear me now?

Should we do a “drive away” or “tow away” mobile command center?

Our first choice at CCS is always a tow away command center purely for the sake of redundancy. It is really very simple, if a mobile command center is built on the chassis of a vehicle and that vehicle has a mechanical failure, you lose your mobile command center. If your mobile command center is built out as a trailer and the towing vehicle has a mechanical failure, then you simply find another towing vehicle. The first few years as a company, CCS would not build a vehicle based mobile command center for that very reason. The reality is that some customers felt more comfortable driving a vehicle than towing a trailer so eventually we agreed to do both, but we still always recommend a trailer version.

What trends do you see in the mobile command center market?

Over the past 5 years we have seen customers shy away from building out the bigger command centers (30 to 48 foot units) and look at smaller more tactical units. There are multiple reasons for this: (1) The requirement for a special driver’s license and skill set to drive or tow the larger units (2) The need for smaller units that can be easily transported through urban areas with smaller streets, more traffic, low hanging tree limbs, etc.. (3) The need to air lift units to a destination or ship by sea (4) Overall cost and ongoing maintenance. CCS has been offering our MERC-Lite and MERC-Mini packages for over 10 years and these trailers have been certified for transport on a C-130 and have a proven track record of urban deployments in over 14 countries. To assist with the loss of office space by not having a large command center, CCS has bundled several of our Zumro air shelters that can either attach to these smaller MERC units or set up beside them to resolve this work space issue.

What makes CCS different from any of your competition?

The reason the ownership of CCS chose to enter this mobile command center market in 2007 is that we saw a real void in terms of any mobile command center manufacturers that provided full integration of the communication equipment their customers needed. Some of the long standing suppliers build very nice vehicles and trailers to serve as mobile command centers, but do a very poor job of equipping them with the proper communication equipment. They were basically leaving that to the customer to add after they purchased the unit. That makes sense because most of them are really just trailer manufacturers and custom fabricators with no technology background. The founders of CCS were just the opposite, we were all working in the telecommunication market and were basically technology “geeks”. We went out and hired the expertise we needed to build the command centers and they do a great job at it, but our focus has been and always will be the communication equipment we install in and on these mobile command centers. That is by far the most important component of these units allowing our customers to communicate and schedule the resources they need to respond to any disaster.
