Tunnel

Incidents in tunnels cause a particular headache for road infrastructure managers. An enclosed space proves a challenge in a number of ways – monitoring, evacuation, and getting to an incident. They can also prove natural traffic bottlenecks if not properly managed.

Hikvision offers a complete and professional solution for tunnels in the form of Automatic Incident Detection and Traffic Data Collection. Based on intelligent video processing, the system is able to quickly alert operators about incidents, promptly send notifications of events to Hikvision’s HikCentral Professional software platform and to 3rd party systems. These can then automatically archive event video clips and record relevant statistical data, like vehicle counting, traffic density and traffic flow conditions.

Tunnel surveillance can build up a lot of video information, making it difficult for operator to identify potential or real incidents in time to act. The alarms the system provides in certain circumstances that have been detected make efficient reaction and problem avoidance or solving much easier.

Incident detection

A range of incidents can slow down or block a tunnel – even making them dangerous for oncoming traffic. Vehicle accidents require fast emergency service support; objects fallen on the road need to be removed before they pose a threat. Even situations involving cars driving the wrong way need to be rectified quickly. The Automatic Incident Detection system provides fast and effective automatic flagging of these incidents. This means an operator can react, providing a suitable response to arrange emergency help and avoid further danger to tunnel users

Traffic safety

With numerous vehicles going through tunnel with restricted space, often at speed, keeping people safe is a prime concern. The system can help planners to manage the changing situation in a tunnel, helping operators to react, or plan, where necessary. For example, if the system detects a pedestrian on the roadway, they can act to dispatch aid, potentially slowing or stopping the traffic to avoid an accident. This can also be the same for a stopped, or parked car in the middle of a road, for example.

Easing congestion

Tunnels can prove to be natural ‘bottlenecks’ in busy times, or in times of bad weather, for example. Analysis of the traffic density and flow within the tunnel can give planners useful information to avoid this. They may see times or situations that typically show more traffic, or even see the real-time situation building up which may indicate a problem in the near future. This information gives them the tools to make decision that can ease the flow of traffic and minimize congestion.
