Milestone Systems’ open platform IP video management software (VMS) is installed in the Norwegian ship service called ‘Hurtigruten’ with network cameras from Axis Communications. An engine room fire in 2011 prompted renovations with innovative surveillance technology for safety and operational excellence.
Hurtigruten is a traditional ferry service for the transportation of goods and passengers between Bergen and Kirkenes in Norway. Serving the coastal population since 1866, it is both a transport route and a tourist attraction. The route currently has 11 vessels calling at 34 ports every day of the year, transporting more than 230,000 passengers.
