TUNNELS-OLYMPIA HIGHWAY

# PROJECT: OLYMPIA ODOS Section tunnels KAKIAS SKALAS

# CLIENT: J / O APION KLEOS 

# SYSTEM: CCTV, AVID, VICONNET

# Completion: 2010 

This project is part of a larger contract with the consortium for the entire closed-circuit television system in the new highway project of  Elefsina-Corinth-Patras-Pyrgos-Tsakona, including the automated incident control through image processing  for the tunnels Kakia Scala and Peripheral Highway of Patron. In Kakia Skala in particular a field check took place in order to confirm if the existing system gave full coverage from which an expansion in camera numbers was decided.

The CCTV was upgraded with lens changes, camera repositioning and the addition of PTZ cameras in the tunnels. The existing AVID (Automatic Video based Incident Detection) system was extended and adjusted as a whole from the beginning. The event managing server (AVIDserver)was upgraded with   the latest software and a computer terminal (AVIDclient) for DTP Operators of  Kakia Skala was added. A computer cluster with VICONNET software was also added for digitizing and recording (DVR)the image of all cameras. The general plan of the consortium is to provide digitized image (live or playback) via the new fiber network in regional centers or Traffic Management Boards.

The project in numbers: total length 4.5 km of tunnels, 75 cameras (including 17PTZ), 52 image processors, 2 servers (AVID, VICONNET), 2 clients (AVID, VICONNET), 6 DVRs.
