Seaport Surveillance Solutions
COE is uniquely suited to address the challenges of video surveillance networking for our global partners in the seaport market.
Maintenance of OperationsFaced with the combined risks of terrorism, illegal smuggling of drugs,
trafficking of people and theft of assets & cargo, ensuring constant security
for ports is an absolute necessity. Efficient detection, evaluation and
response to threats is key to maintaining operations.
International ComplianceEnsuring compliance with IMO’s International Ship and Port Facility
Security Code of practice (ISPS Code) is very important for major ports.
A video sub-system must integrate with the overall security system, and
perform to standards in compliance with the ISPS code to be an effective
solution for major seaports.
Protection of AssetsA major disruption of activities at any seaport could be disastrous. Not
only would operations and assets on site be compromised, but many
far reaching effects would be felt across trade routes, other ports and
businesses worldwide.
Video surveillance solutions for the world’s largest sites
COE was founded in 1989 with a vision of developing the highest quality video surveillance equipment in the world.
The pursuit of this vision has led to the development of a world-class product set designed to
perform without compromise in challenging environments.
Recognising the importance of maintaining site security at seaports, the technologies engineered
into COE product solutions ensure not only that systems will perform to the highest standard
possible, but also that networks will not be compromised through device or path loss failure, or
through acts of sabotage.
Working in conjunction with integration partners, COE has designed and implemented video
surveillance solutions for a number of high profile seaports around the world, including: the Port
of London, Gunsan Port in South Korea, and the Port of Singapore, the largest container port in the
world.
The experience of specifying and delivering equipment for over 10,000 sites worldwide has
provided COE with expertise in developing optimum video surveillance solutions. Our focus on
creating surveillance packages for the most demanding and security critical sites in the world has
established a global reputation as industry leaders.
Cargo solutions over 20 years in the making
With major ports in operation 24 hours a day, 365 days a year, any disruption to operations will be felt around the
world. Ensuring site security is key to maintaining consistent operations and profitability.
The role of shipping and seaports in the movement of goods around the world is absolutely
critical. Maintaining efficiency and on-schedule operations at seaports, many of which are
active 24/7/365, is the single most important consideration to ensure successful operations.
Video surveillance is a key tool in ensuring assets are protected and staff safety is assured.
A properly specified surveillance system for a major shipping port will be equipped with a
number of features specialist to this demanding environment. These include:
Addressing the challenge of securing shipping operations
• Redundancy proofing at all levels Device and design redundancy proofing, ensures the system remains operational through individual or multiple device failure, path loss, or acts of sabotage.
• Rugged equipment design Equipment designed especially for transportation environments provides exceptional performance for many years.
• Multiple control room access points Large sites require multiple control rooms. However, access must be provided to all cameras across the site from each of these control points.
• Full solution integration Major seaports will inevitably have some legacy security measures in place. Solutions should enable integration and updating of this
legacy equipment, and addition of new equipment with minimal infrastructure development costs.
From an initial offering of fibre optic transmission products in 1989, COE’s product range has developed to encompass the entire solution
package of video surveillance products.
COE’s advanced video surveillance product ranges
I-Vue® Analytical IP CamerasCOE’s I-Vue camera range combines a rich feature
set with industry beating specifications to provide
high definition IP video capture and encoding. The
I-Vue range has been developed to perform in
demanding environments such as those encountered
at commercial ports.

Building a port surveillance solution
Logistics AnalysisThrough smart implementation of
video analytics, logistical processes can be streamlined utilising cameras. Identification of bottlenecks, queues,
misplaced containers, vehicles etc. This prevents hold-ups and helps to
maintain efficient operations.
Third Party integrationCOE offers flexibility to integrate existing
security measures and also third party devices and systems. For example, at
Gunsan Port, South Korea, we equipped PTZ cameras to automatically respond to
alarms from a legacy fencing system.
Intelligent Video Analysis
COE’s SmartDetect analysis products detecting and alerting to behaviour and activities governed by a wide
range of predefined rules. Advanced analytical capabilities such as water
vessel detection are included.
Building a port surveillance solution
Operational Control Centre
Utilising COE surveillance, transmissionand management equipment, the
Operational Control Centre (OCC) is facilitated to access and control video
from anywhere across the entire network. Video analysis and remote site surveillance is also available to
operators at the OCC.
Multiple Access Points
Large sites may require multiple control rooms. COE’s network designs
ensure every control room has instant access to live and recorded video from
every camera.
The Port of Singapore Authority (PSA) operate the largest container transhipment hub in the world,
shipping more than 27 million TWEU (Twenty foot equivalent units) per year and handling about one
fifth of the world’s total container transhipment throughput.
Operating 24 hours a day, 365 days a year, PSA manages container movements serving 200 shipping lines, offering
connections to 600 ports in 123 countries. The port has around 1100 cameras installed, and several control centres located
across four main terminals. Due to their aging system, lack of integration across the port and the desire for more efficient
operations, PSA decided to update the entire system to an integrated digital video platform.
COE was selected to provide a complete video transmission and management solution for this landmark site which integrates
disparate technologies whilst utilising the existing infrastructure with minimal development costs. The chosen solution
digitised the existing analogue camera network, enhancing functionality & recording capacity and facilitating future expansion.
The scope of the Port of Singapore
