AxxonSoft PSIM in the core of comprehensive security solution for Serengeti Golf & Wildlife Estate

Client

Serengeti Golf & Wildlife Estate is a 10-minute drive from OR Tambo International Airport (ORT). With the importance of global trade and logistics playing an increasing role in the choice of location both for tourism and for the place of primary residence, the significance of the international airport and Serengeti’s proximity to it cannot be over-emphasized.

Challenge

The area is situated close to the highway, which makes it a prime spot for intruders to access and have a quick getaway. The perimeter fencing serves as a deterrent, but 24/7 security is vital. Guards patrolling the perimeter fencing can only be in one area at any given time. Video surveillance including thermal imagers is therefore needed in all the areas surrounding the estate.

Solution

To address the major concern of unwanted access around the perimeter and also to allow ease of access for residents, the client installed AxxonSoft PSIM software including the Auto PSIM system with on-server LPR from CARMEN. Understanding the needs of the client and the need for an open platform PSIM product due to the existing hardware, AxxonSoft PSIM provides a platform to allow easy integration with current cameras, new High Definition PTZ and box cameras. AxxonSoft PSIM supports on-camera analytics and sends alarms from cameras and thermal imagers to a third-party online occurrence book.

Auto PSIM provides the client with access for residents at gates. Each vehicle the resident owns is registered with the biometrics at Access Control System integrated into AxxonSoft PSIM. If a fingerprint matches the one in LPR data, the gates open, and if the license plate number is not registered to the person driving, access is denied.

AxxonSoft PSIM installed on over 5 Servers with 220 cameras on site monitor the entire estate.

Results

Installing AxxonSoft PSIM solution permitted the client to use existing camera hardware and integrate newer equipment. Thanks to thermal analytics integration, AxxonSoft PSIM secures the perimeter allowing less physical guarding. Access control integration in combination with LPR technology allows easy access for residents and total security for residents’ vehicles.
