Urban rail and metro has come a long way and has adapted to many new challenges and technologies over the last 150 years. Much has changed since London’s first subway railroad was put into service, and the journey continues in the direction of Smart City and IoT.

Video technology, which has provided security and safety in urban transportation for decades, is evolving into computer vision. CCTV cameras, available in almost every station and train worldwide, will be enabled by artificial intelligence and video analytics to perform tasks previously done by humans, or not at all. Smart surveillance cameras become business all-rounders in smart stations and trains, taking passenger experience to the next level.

In this white paper, Azena give an idea of today’s technical possibilities to get more out of CCTV camera systems to extend their purpose for rail, metro, bus security and options.
