The works are expected to be completed in the first quarter of 2023. The goal is to improve security and the customer experience.
Renfe has started work so that seven stations in Gipuzkoa have intelligent video surveillance equipment. In this way, the commuter train stations of Andoain, Beasain, Gros, Hernani-Centro, Lezo-Renteria, Ordizia and Tolosa will be monitored by intelligent systems. The end of the works is estimated in the first quarter of 2023.
This new system automatically and anonymously collects and processes thousands of data from each station’s CCTV system and integrates them into a single control panel. The goal is to improve security and customer experience, always in strict compliance with data protection regulations.
The company has already installed the first intelligent video surveillance equipment in more than 60 Cercanías stations across Spain, which is the first step towards the full digitization of the security systems of 483 Cercanías stations, within the project called ‘Renfe Smart Security Station’ (RS3 ), to be completed by 2024.
During this time, more than 5,000 analog security cameras will be replaced by IP cameras, allowing the information collected through the CCTV system to be shared in an integrated video analytics system.
System benefits
Thanks to this intelligent security system, it will be possible to know in real time what is happening in the stations. For example, by analyzing the influx, if necessary, more and more personnel can be sent to the stations that need it. Safety-related incidents such as people and objects falling on the rails, fires, vandalism or access fraud can also be detected automatically.
