What are the reasons for the frequent “supervisory airspace” of community surveillance cameras?

Under the surveillance camera was knocked down by the car, but because in the monitoring of the dead, the figure of the accident car was not recorded, the driver escaped to escape traces of nothing; the night into the district thieves, stolen owners want to call surveillance video to find thief shadow However, it was difficult to retrieve video. After several twists and turns of obtaining permission to view the video, it was found that the camera in the key position had been damaged for a long time... The reporter found during investigation that many monitoring devices did not play their due role. Instead, it has become a "supervisor." Among them, there is no maintenance of the equipment damaged, there is a blind spot in the monitoring settings, and some surveillance videos are difficult to retrieve. These problems have become the main reason for the “supervisory airspace”.

Has the monitor turned into a "supervisor"?

At about 4 pm on April 27 this year, the father of Ms. Zhang working in Jinzhou New District was knocked down by a white Jetta sedan while crossing the road, and the owner ran away. The camera was installed in seven locations near the bank where the old man was hit and in several large shopping malls. However, it is chilling that “of the seven cameras, two surveillance horizons did not cover the incident site, and the other three monitored. The unit to which the lens belongs claims that the monitor has been damaged, and two units simply refuse us to call surveillance videos.” Ms. Zhang reluctantly stated that even if there was a surveillance camera at the time of the incident, the “White Jetta” did not It may be so easy to escape.

Similar to the situation of Ms. Zhang, the 25-year-old Liu Zhengyang was also given a "pit" by the escape driver and the "air cell". Liu Zhengyang was knocked down by a car near the Lotus Community on Baishan Road on May 6. At that time, the purple “bullet” quickly fled the scene. “There was a surveillance camera just above the location where I was hit. However, when the police called the surveillance video, they found that the location where I was hit was the blind spot of the monitor.” Liu Zhengyang said helplessly.

Compared with Liu Zhengyang and Ms. Zhang, residents in a newly-built community in Ganjingzi District have greater views on “air-to-air devices”. In mid-May of this year, several households in the community suffered continuous burglary. In order to find clues to solve the case, some of the stolen tenants found the residential property and asked for surveillance videos. “I did not expect that the property would not provide monitoring video at all and said that we personally have no right to read it.” Mr. Chen, a stolen resident, said that in the end, everyone checked the surveillance video of the residential property through the police. “The property was treated as “confidential” and kept monitoring videos that were not offered. Many of the key positions were black screens. Later they realized that these cameras were bad.”

These problems lead to "monitoring" becoming "supervisory"

Since June 5th, the reporter has visited many new residential districts and hotels, shopping malls and other public places in the city, and conducted a preliminary investigation on the phenomenon of “monitoring and monitoring of empty space”.

Question 1: The monitor was damaged or placed in a residential area near Hongye Street in Shahekou District. A brand-new camera was installed on the wall of the residential building facing the north gate of the residential area. But after a closer look, you can see that the connection behind this camera is broken. The reporter then went on to learn about the properties of the community. The property staff said that the camera had not been installed since the camera had just been installed. In the residential property management office, half of the terminal monitors connecting surveillance cameras are not on. "The surveillance cameras connected to these small screens have either failed or simply become damaged." Property personnel said that the current security protection in the community mainly depends on security patrols. "The monitoring system we installed was not started during the day."

In the neighborhood of Shandong Road, Ganjingzi District, the monitoring video provided by the property staff is ambiguous. “The resolution of our monitoring equipment is too low.” The person in charge of the property center of the residential area said that the original implementation of the district was a 24-hour monitoring, but because several times of the captured monitoring images were not clear, several times resulted in the property Incorrect alarm. In desperation, with the consent of the owners' committee, some surveillance cameras have been closed. "The maintenance cost of the surveillance system is also a big expense. It is very difficult to rely on the property alone," said the person in charge.

Question 2: Many of the monitoring and installation blind spots and blind spots, in addition to the damage of the monitoring system itself, some of the monitor's installation blind spots and blind spots have also led to the emergence of "air monitoring" phenomenon. There are nearly 20 surveillance cameras in a shopping mall near Bayi Road in Xigang District, but most of them are concentrated in the cash register area and near counters for important commodities. In the surveillance blind area, there have been many incidents of bag stealing. “There is indeed a monitoring blind spot in shopping malls. This is a legacy issue in the initial installation of a monitoring system. At present, we are preparing to install new monitoring equipment to fill the blind spot,” said the mall.

In some residential communities, because of the quality of the monitoring equipment itself, as long as the light is dimmed, the monitoring equipment can hardly complete the monitoring task.

Question 3: Monitoring Record "Not External"

Even if the monitoring system is well-equipped and has no dead ends, ordinary citizens have to encounter a lot of obstacles in obtaining monitoring records. On June 5th, the reporter of the newspaper’s employer was required to access surveillance videos and contacted a property company in a new district in Ganjingzi District. Property staff said that the surveillance video of the community was “not external”. “Whether it is located in the building or on public roads in the community, only public security agencies can access the surveillance video,” said the staff. The reporter then consulted several residential properties in the city and units equipped with monitoring equipment. The staff members all indicated that the unit’s monitoring records were not announced. "To check the records must go to the public security agency to open a certificate."

Mr. Sun, a citizen, said that if there are civil disputes, even if the monitoring records are eventually called out through heavy formalities, it may be impossible to check the monitoring records at the time of the incident because of the length of time.

Community monitoring facilities do not have uniform standards When reporters visited several franchised stores selling monitoring equipment in our city, the cameras in the surveillance equipment were dazzling, but the prices were vastly different and the quality varied widely, from tens of dollars to several thousand. There are several grades of dollars.

Industry sources told the reporter that at present, the city has only made explicit provisions for the construction and use of security facilities in residential areas, but there is no uniform standard requirement for monitoring facilities. The production facilities of the monitoring facilities and Party A (developers or property management companies and other units that need to install monitoring equipment) are basically in a “free combination” state. In actual operation, it is generally requested by Party A, and the manufacturer will make design and construction plans accordingly. As for what kind of equipment to use, Party A chooses.

For the issue of refusing access to monitoring records, the reporter consulted the police in the city and learned that if the monitoring equipment is installed in a community or a street unit, the parties concerned have the right to acquire the monitoring records from the monitoring equipment installation unit in the event of a civil dispute. The unit is obliged to provide video. If the unit refuses to provide records, the parties can ask the police for help. If the monitoring equipment is part of the "Tianwang" installed by the police, the monitoring records need to be reported to the police. If a criminal case is constituted, the police will call for records to collect evidence. If it constitutes civil tort, the police will also provide assistance to the parties. .
