Equipment Package: Field Secure Area Sensor Monitoring

Description: This equipment package includes sensors that monitor conditions of secure areas including facilities (e.g. transit yards) and transportation infrastructure (e.g. bridges, tunnels, interchanges, and transit railways or guideways). Included are acoustic, environmental threat (e.g. chemical agent, toxic industrial chemical, biological, explosives, and radiological sensors), infrastructure condition and integrity and motion and object sensors.
Included In: Peace Bridge Field Equipment
Route 5 Skyway Closing System
General Functional Requirements 1 - The field element shall include security sensors that monitor conditions of secure areas including facilities (e.g. transit yards) and transportation infrastructure (e.g. bridges, tunnels, interchanges, roadway infrastructure, and transit railways or guideways).
2 - The field element shall be remotely controlled by a center.
3 - The field element shall provide equipment status and fault indication of security sensor equipment to a center.
4 - The field element shall include environmental threat sensors (e.g. chemical agent, toxic industrial chemical, biological, explosives, and radiological).
5 - The field element shall include infrastructure condition and integrity monitoring sensors.
6 - The field element shall include motion and intrusion detection sensors.
7 - The field element shall include object detection sensors (such as metal detectors).
8 - The field element shall provide raw security sensor data.
9 - The field element shall remotely process security sensor data and provide an indication of potential incidents or threats to a center.
