International : Police Station security in Iran

Like all police forces, the Iranian police, the NAJA, strive for the maximum accessibility and accountability in their operations in order to maintain public confidence and support, and are constantly striving to make improvements to further this aim. As an important part of this policy of accessibility, a system requirement was prepared for a very advanced CCTV concept - placing CCTV colour cameras in each police station, and linking all the cameras utilising Vista SmartTel, over a city wide network into a central control room, giving both central and local viewing of the images. The communications methods used would be in part the existing police cable WAN, and in part new connections over wireless and microwave, using IP (Internet Protocol) transmission.
