Editor's Notes
Quicker ROI (Return On Investment) for CCTV and security systems due to shorter response times and more adequate detectionReduction of cot (ao human capital – less operators or guards needed)Detection of all violations or security breaches – no more missing out on eventsIncreased control room efficiency – quicker response, shorter intervention timesValuable statistics – for operational purposes (eg people on platform, crowd on bus, visitors in store, train in station)Better marketing – measure results of marketing (advertisements, visitors, trade, sale, …)
