We have upwards of 290 cameras deployed in steam effected and LHRA’s that are used daily by operations to remotely monitor their equipment. We use an extensive audio system with the Radio Active Design UV-1Gs providing the core or our wireless communications.
In 2014, we secured 2.7 million to upgrade from analog to a digital based remote monitoring system. The bulk of that cost was in the purchase of ISEC RadCams, Panasonic WV-SC385 dome cameras, network switches and infrastructure to support digital audio.
We had already owned the BHI RMS software at that time.</span></b><span style="font-size:11.0pt;line-height:150%;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif"><o:p></o:p></span></p>
