be examined even after the event.
With PTZ cameras, the general
overview image is lost while the
camera is recording a detailed area.
Recording is based on the
Dallmeier DIS-2/M NSU blade
technology this ensures maxi-
mum availability and reliability of
the recording. Each blade unit is
equipped with a redundant hard
disk. The units are powered via a
rack for 19" slide-in modules with
redundant power supply units.
The rack system can accommodate
up to 10 single modules, so that
even relatively large systems can
be installed in compact and cost-
efficient manner. The modular
structure of the system guarantees
high availability of the overall
solution.
Resounding success
Alessandro Fidato, Director of
the Infrastructure Development
& Flight Operations department,
describes the video system as a
resounding success: "With these
two projects, Gesac confirms its
orientation towards innovative so-
lutions that ensure high standards
of security and simplify manage-
ment arrangements. We are very
satisfied with this cooperation."
Pierpaolo Piracci of Dall-
meier Italy responds: "I am very
proud to have been personally
involved in these highly innova-
tive projects, and I would like
to thank Alessandro Fidato and
Giuseppe Musto of Gesac SPA
for the confidence they have
shown in our technology and
professionalism." n
228° camera coverage
The cameras of the Panomera
system for this airfield project were
installed at a considerable height,
close to the roof of the Apron
tower at about 13 metres; three
Panomera systems installed in a
semicircle provide a panoramic
view through 228°. The Panomera
Viewer workstation was located
inside the Apron Tower to provide
security staff with a unique and
full panoramic view of the entire
airfield.
"With Panomera technology,
distant objects can be captured
with the same quality as those in
the foreground. The extremely
high resolution over the entire area
of interest and intuitive operation
of the system led us to choose
Dallmeier", says Giuseppe Musto,
Head of Innovation & Automa-
tion Development for Gesac.
Another important difference
between Panomera and conven-
tional PTZ cameras is that the
whole area to be monitored with
Panomera, is recorded continuous-
ly, so the high resolution images
enable important, single details to
system precisely to the require-
ments of the airport management
company.
Two major zones
For Gesac, two major zones of the
airport site were of paramount im-
portance: the area in front of the
airport buildings, and the apron
and runways.
In the airport forecourt and
concourse, Panomera moni-
tors traffic and pedestrian flows
between the multi-storey car park,
Terminal 1 and the network of
feeder roads and paths by which
people arrive at and leave the
airport, either in motor vehicles or
on foot.
Traffic monitoring
The customer also wanted to
obtain complete coverage of the
movements of all vehicles and
aircraft anywhere on the entire
airfield, including the ramps and
aprons, taxiways, and takeoff and
landing runways, so that incidents
could be reconstructed if neces-
sary, wherever they occurred on
the site.
Gesac`s security engineers saw
the Panomera multifocal sensor
system from Dallmeier for the first
time at the "Sicurezza" trade fair
in Milan in 2010, and were very
impressed by the performance
capabilities of this ground-
breaking video technology. Unlike
conventional cameras, which
have a single focal lens, multifocal
sensor technology is based on a
multi-sensor platform with several
lenses, each with different focal
lengths, creating the unrivalled
Panomera effect. This innovative
system provides surveillance of
large areas with extremely high
resolution, all from a single instal-
lation site.
The contact at the trade fair
was followed by an intensive
planning and design phase, dur-
ing which the staff at Dallmeier
Italy worked closely with the
"Infrastructure Development &
Flight Operations" department
of Gesac, under the direction of
Alessandro Fidato. Representa-
tives of Dallmeier Italy visited
the site several times so that
they could adapt the new video

The international airport at Naples, Napoli Capodi-

year. with the introduction of the Panomera multifo-

apron and the airport forecourt areas is enhanced
further still by the very latest in camera technology.
