Remote Site Monitoring e-surveillance system

Remote Site Monitoring

What is effective remote site monitoring?

Remote site monitoring in essence can be summed up as follows:

  • Staying connected to remote sites
  • Identify if something worthwhile is happening at a site and get those details
  • Take corrective action as per Standard Operating Procedures(SOP) OR take manual action and define an SOP for future such occurrences.
  • Grow the network!

Why is remote site monitoring needed ?

"To know whats happening, before or when it is happening rather than later."

If your organization has geographically distributed outlets such as warehouses, retail stores, restaurants, managing decorum and managing security of remote sites is expensive and tedious.
If your sites are manned, then site monitoring is important for the following reasons:

  • To ensure compliance by staff
  • To respond to emergencies
  • To know the ground realities at sites and define future course of Operating Procedures

If your sites are unmanned, then remote monitoring is important for the following reasons:

  • Check for trespassers
  • Check for vandalism
  • Monitor functioning of equipment through sensors
  • Reduce physical visits

Why isn't CCTV site monitoring enough ?

Conventional remote monitoring systems such as CCTVs are a very expensive and ineffective method for remote site monitoring.

Problems with conventional CCTV systems
  • CCTVs can be turned off and no one would know about it.
  • CCTVs can stop recording data due to their own faults and wont have data when footage is needed
  • CCTVs store all data locally, if a CCTV is stolen, data is lost too


Problems with remote monitoring of CCTVs
  • Remote monitoring with CCTVs requires enormous bandwidth at each site
  • At monitoring center, the bandwidth requirement is multiplied by number of sites.
  • Monitoring personnel can monitor only a few sitesStaff is needed to monitor 1000's of sites
  • Eye fatigue of monitoring staff can miss important incidents


WR-700s advance AI based learning algorithms, identify what is happening at a site and then judge based on sensor inputs if an activity is important to be reported. Intelligence in the system allows not repeating mistakes, anticipating a problem while still adhering to a SOP(Standard Operating Procedures).

WR-700 observes everything about a site and learns about equipment at the site , people tracking, doors opening/closing, temperature, water logging, electricity supply, glow sign boards, entry lights, fans, Air Conditioners. WR700 can optimize energy consumption, improve longevity and reduce chances of accidents that can be caused due to unattended functioning of equipment.

Ahoy's WR-700 mini(Web Remote - 7 Series) is a all-in-one wall mount unit that allows smart monitoring of remote sites without spending millions on expensive CCTV systems or on internet bandwidth.
