In preparation for the G8 Summit of Presidents and Prime Ministers in Genova, Italy, Pelco video security systems were tasked with providing city surveillance to ensure the safety and security of all attendees. Major streets, office buildings and other high-traffi c areas throughout the city were outfi tted with a combination of Spectra III and Esprit camera positioning systems. The system, which continues to operate, is managed by the local police authority, with cameras connected to an integrated system that monitors all the streets where the cameras are installed. Individual video feeds can be called up on monitors simply by selecting a particular camera on an interactive map.
