Case Study - Transport Security - Bus and Rail Security by Verint
Eurotransport BVG.

For transport operators, protecting their passengers, staff and their assets is of paramount importance, and increasingly so. Whether on buses, trains or trams, indeed on any passenger transport, combating crime and dealing with the fall-out of crime is a major concern, fraught with challenges. For Eurotransport, Robert Wint, Marketing Director of EMEA Verint Solutions interviewed Mr. Burkhard Eberwein, Head of Vehicle Management (Bus) Department at BVG, who examines the challenges and developments concerning security for public transport users in Berlin

Perhaps the greatest challenge is how to find the most viable, most cost-efficient and most effective way of dealing with the serious issues of violence and vandalism that plague network operators, reduce passenger numbers and impact significantly on the bottom line. The solutions, too, must have the support of those passengers and the wider public at large, not to mention the authorities, in order for those solutions to work.

One network operator that can genuinely claim to be at the forefront of providing a safe environment for staff and passengers alike is Berliner Verkehrsbetriebe (BVG), one of the largest bus operators in the European local public transport sector. BVG’s network comprises nine underground railway lines, 22 tram lines and 201 bus routes as well as six ferries on Berlin’s waterways.

Wholly owned by the State of Berlin since 1929, when BVG was established in 1847 it
operated five bus routes with 20 horse-drawn vehicles and 120 horses. Today its vehicles carry approximately 900 million passengers – equivalent to over 2.4 million people very day – and its bus routes alone total more than 1,600km. Almost 6,600 unidirectional bus stops (total of day and night services combined) are available.

Vandalism and petty crime BVG suffers no more than any other transport
operator in Europe from incidences of petty vandalism on its buses, or other outbreaks of antisocial behaviour. Assaults on drivers or other passengers are thankfully still the exception, rather than the rule, but BVG nevertheless understands it has a public duty to try and reduce any examples of crime on its buses to nil, if at all possible.

Twin Cities Metro Transit Selects Verint Nextiva Transit Solution

Networked Video Solution Will Help Create a Safe Travel Environment for Bus Passengers and Operators

Verint Systems Inc., a leading provider of analytic software-based solutions for workforce-enterprise optimisation and security today announced that Metro Transit has selected its Nextiva™ Transit solution to enhance the security of passengers and operators on-board its buses in the Minneapolis-St. Paul area.

Metro Transit manages an integrated network of buses and trains and is the 18th largest transit system in the US, with approximately 240,000 rides provided each weekday. As the principal transit provider in the Minneapolis-St. Paul area, Metro Transit recently launched a multi-million bus fleet security initiative designed to further enhance passenger safety and prevent crime. As a critical component of this strategy, Nextiva Transit will help modernise the transit authority’s security infrastructure, replacing existing analogue recorders with a scalable, rugged and flexible digital video solution.

“Metro Transit was one of the first agencies to deploy analogue on-board video recording solutions to help increase passenger safety,” said Brian Lamb, General Manager of Metro Transit. “Verint’s Nextiva Transit solution will help us transition to digital on-board video to create a more robust security environment.”

Nextiva Transit will provide video across 240 buses and allow Metro Transit to wirelessly transfer marked video back to garage operations personnel for investigation and risk management purposes. Nextiva Transit will enable more effective management of Metro Transit’s entire on-board video network through automatic system health monitoring, camera tampering detection and proactive problem notification.

“Transit authorities today are faced with a growing need to protect their staff and riders and mitigate risk across their vast transit networks,” said Dan Bodner, President and CEO of Verint Systems Inc. “Verint’s Nextiva Transit solution, built on our expertise from thousands of successful deployments, helps leading providers like Metro Transit increase security and enhance the effectiveness of their entire operations.”

Nextiva Transit is part of the Nextiva portfolio of networked video solutions. Nextiva enables organisations of all sizes, from small and mid-sized enterprises to major government and commercial organisations, to enhance the security of their facilities and infrastructure and the performance of their business operations by networking video across multiple locations and applying advanced content analytics to extract actionable intelligence from live and stored video. By alerting security personnel to potential security threats, Nextiva helps organisations prevent security breaches, improve response time and enhance operational efficiency. View


Case Study : Railway Station Security by Mobotix

Deutsche Bahn (DB)

German railway company Deutsche Bahn (DB) gives high priority to keeping travelers informed. This explains why 220 million euros were invested in a single "Traveler Information System" project. The system is a technical and organizational platform that supplies consistent, reliable and up-to-date information about the current operating status to customers and employees alike. Thanks to this system, on-board personnel can, for example, use text messaging technology to communicate with operations control and to quickly inform passengers about any irregularities. Since station announcers and service staff are likewise linked to the system, passengers waiting at stations can receive the same information.

Security Solution

The announcement service is assisted by MOBOTIX technology. The cameras from the Kaiserslautern-based manufacturer are not only used to track the movements of DB's trains, but increasingly, they are also expected to perform security functions. As such, they play an important part in Deutsche Bahn's "SST program" (Service, Security and Tidiness), which also includes Magdeburg central station.
