INDUSTRIES · TRANSPORTATION & AIRPORTS

Move people safely, at the scale a transport hub demands.

A terminal, a transit network, or a freight yard is one of the largest camera estates a security team will ever run — thousands of cameras, relentless throughput, and an operations floor that has to see everything and act in seconds. Sentinel is the intelligence layer for that control room: one live picture, crowd and flow intelligence in real time, a subject or vehicle found across the whole estate in under a second, and one place for a large team to coordinate an incident.

WHAT A TRANSPORT OPERATIONS FLOOR ACTUALLY NEEDS

Four jobs the control room has to do every shift.

A transport security operation isn’t one problem — it’s a handful of hard ones running at once, all day. Sentinel is built around the four that matter most here.

Thousands of cameras — one estate

Concourses, gates, platforms, car parks, and depots add up fast. Sentinel organises the whole estate into a nested hierarchy — site, building, level, zone — that stays fast no matter how deep it goes, with search, sort, and pagination on every surface.

Read the crowd and the flow

Sentinel’s AI vision reads crowd density and dwell in real time — see a concourse filling, a platform crowding toward an unsafe edge, or a queue backing up before it becomes an incident. The threat picture updates as the floor does.

Find a person or vehicle fast

Upload a photo or pick a known subject and Sentinel retrieves every appearance across the estate, ranked, in well under a second across millions of records — then draws the route on a map with a click-to-jump timeline.

Coordinate the incident as a team

When something starts, Mission Live Board puts the whole floor on one shared map: pins, chat, PTZ locks so two operators don't fight one camera, and incident-commander handover. When it closes, a case file generates automatically.

CROSS-CAMERA TRACKING

From the kerb to the gate — the route reads as one continuous story.

Follow a person or vehicle from the kerb to the gate, or across a transit interchange, as an automatic route on a map with a click-to-jump timeline. The same subject is held in one color across every camera, so a path through a sprawling estate reads as one continuous story instead of a stack of disconnected clips. Plate search with fuzzy matching completes the picture for vehicles across car parks, drop-off lanes, and freight gates.

  • Every appearance retrieved across the full estate in under a second
  • Route rendered as a polyline on the map — click any point to jump to the clip
  • Same subject held in one color across all cameras and all operators
  • Plate search with fuzzy matching and full sighting history
  • Works across car parks, platforms, drop-off lanes, and freight gates

ACCOUNTABLE BY DESIGN

Running a public space means proving how you ran it.

A transport hub is a public space watched in the public interest — which means the standard for accountability is high, and the questions come later. Sentinel was built for jurisdictions with strong privacy law, so accountability isn’t a bolt-on: it’s in the data model.

Lawful basis on every watched subject

Document reference, expiry, and automatic review — authorization to watch a named individual can't quietly outlive its mandate; alerts auto-suspend when it lapses.

Privacy by design

Default privacy controls, per-camera data-protection records and signage for a public estate, and subject-access handling — export or erase — built in.

Retention & holds

Automatic retention per camera, zone, or event type, with litigation holds that pin what an inquiry or claim requires you to keep.

Tamper-evident audit

Every operator action across a large floor is logged and hashed into a chain you can independently verify — so "who looked, and why" has a real answer.

ON YOUR TERMS

On-premise, cloud, or air-gapped — your footage stays yours.

Transport security infrastructure is often operated under sovereignty and continuity requirements that rule out a cloud-only product. Sentinel runs the same platform in your cloud, on-premise via Docker on your own network, or fully air-gapped for a secured operational environment — and works with the ONVIF cameras you already have across terminals, platforms, and yards, so there’s no rip-and-replace. You own your data: your footage and your intelligence never have to leave your network, at any scale.

Request demo access and we’ll send you a private, pre-loaded environment running against a large dataset — find a person or vehicle of interest across the whole estate, read crowd density on a live concourse, open a multi-operator incident, and walk the audit trail end to end.
