The Tom Jobim International Airport installs Dahua thermal cameras

This initiative joins those already introduced by RIOgaleão at the terminal and has allowed it to obtain the international seal that certifies actions to combat the spread of the coronavirus.

Tom Jobim International Airport has installed two thermal detection solutions Dahua Technology to measure the temperature of passengers and employees, as a way to help prevent the coronavirus.

'The implementation of thermal cameras at the airport is an additional health security measure adopted by the concessionaire to prevent the spread of the coronavirus'. RIOgaleão found an appropriate solution to measure passengers' temperature, without compromising the boarding flow, explains Simone Mendonça, Operations Manager of RIOgaleão Terminal.

The two thermal cameras from Dahua Technology and the 'black body' devices have been installed both in the domestic and international areas. Each device measures the temperature of up to 500 people in less than three minutes or 5.000 people in half an hour, simultaneously and without contact, allowing continuous passenger flow.

The adoption of the thermal camera solution is part of a series of measures adopted by RIOgaleão to contain the spread of the coronavirus. In September, RIOgaleão se convirtió en el primer aeropuerto de Brasil en obtener el sello del Consejo Mundial de Viajes y Turismo (WTTC), que da fe del desarrollo de acciones para prevenir la COVID-19. Además del sello mundial, que cuenta con el apoyo de la Organización Mundial del Turismo, RIOgaleão también ganó el sello Turismo Consciente, otorgado por la Secretaría de Turismo del Estado de Río de Janeiro (Setur-RJ).

Este se dirige a establecimientos del sector turístico, como una forma de identificar hoteles, restaurants, atractivos turísticos y terminales que siguen los protocolos necesarios para garantizar la seguridad de sus visitantes.
