Faster retrieval times - No more screening
through hours and hours of videotape. Utilizing digital CCTV, users can
instantly retrieve video. Users can rapidly search events by time, date,
location and camera.
Less storage space required - Users may set the
system to record when motion or other pre-defined events are detected -
so there's no wasted "dead taping". Video is then compressed and
efficiently stored to a hard drive.
Archiving - Important information can be archived
to external HDD, CD-R or DVD for later retrieval.
Higher image quality - Digital CCTV provides
unbeatable quality. Digital video can be easily enhanced and copied over
and over without losing its original quality.
Better quality - Digital Video Recording provides
much sharper better quality images to aid in evidence and image
recognition.
No Tapes - with analog systems tapes need to be
replaced regularly, but digital storage media has an almost unlimited
lifetime.
Immune to noise - Digital systems are less
affected by noise than analog systems.
Transmit and retrieve stored data - Across town
or across the world, video images can be remotely viewed, easily saved,
retrieved, displayed, copied, printed, faxed and e-mailed.
Less Obsolescence - Most systems’ software is
upgradeable which extends the systems’ lifetime.
