Brown County, Wisconsin, has upgraded disparate DVR systems that were time consuming and unreliable to an improved system designed to keep workers and publicly owned property safe with streamlined efficiency. They installed a fibre communications network with an IP-based surveillance system. Network cameras from Axis Communications are interconnected through Milestone XProtect® Corporate video management software (VMS). Brown County now efficiently monitors public buildings including the museum, library, courthouse, jail, community treatment centre – even the solid waste facilities. At the Austin Straubel International Airport, Agent Vi analytics are integrated with the Milestone XProtect platform for critical alerts.
Brown County, Wisconsin covers 530 square miles and is home to the Green Bay Packers, 13 townships, nine villages and two cities. With departments scattered throughout, the new surveillance system had to be centrally administrated and controlled with restricted access from specific areas, enabling all departments to share video, with fast and efficient views of security related events.
