Riga Airport expands its video surveillance infrastructure with Indra

The InNova surface movement guidance and control system from Indra will be expanded with cameras that will be installed on top of the tower to monitor the runway and operational areas. Besides, a PTZ will be used to track, zoom in and follow specific targets.

Latvijas Gaisa Satiksme (LGS) has awarded a contract to the subsidiary of Indra in Norway, Indra Navia, to improve video camera surveillance at Riga International Airport. LGS anticipates a significant increase in traffic volume in the coming years.

With the planned expansion and construction work, The video surveillance solution will provide air traffic controllers with greater control over ground operations.

“Safety always comes first, and we need to ensure that our air traffic controllers have excellent visual control. Indra's solution is easy to use and will help us improve operational safety”, comments Roberts Sviklo, head of the air traffic control towers at Riga International Airport.

Indra will install cameras on top of the tower to monitor the airport runway and operational areas. An additional PTZ camera will be used to track, zoom in and follow specific targets.

Los controladores del tráfico aéreo podrán controlar las cámaras gracias a la integración con el sistema avanzado de guía y control del movimiento en superficie (Asmgcs) InNova de Indra que LGS utiliza desde 2006. Esta integración solucionará retos relacionados con el control visual limitado con condiciones meteorológicas adversas, durante la noche y en determinados ángulos muertos surgidos a raíz de la construcción de nuevos edificios y hangares.
