Minister of the Presidency Gustavo Montalvo has announced that the South Korean government has donated 180 video surveillance cameras to be used in the National System of Emergency and Security. The cameras will be part of the new initiative behind the start of the 911 call center. As reported in Listin Diario, some 1,300 cameras will be located at strategic points across the country. They will have high definition, infrared, night vision and will be resistant to impact, dust, water and inadequate manipulation. The cameras will be able to analyze crowds, count people, detect intruders, abandoned objects, the direction of vehicles, driver’s license plate detection, manipulation of cameras, and other functions.
Minister Gustavo Montalvo gave thanks to South Korean Ambassador Park Dong-sil who in person made the donation. Ambassador Dong-sil said he was pleased to be able to help with the implementation of the 911 National Emergency and Safety System and said that he would continue to provide support for the expansion of the system.
