IntelliDAR™
The Searidge intelligent video platform, IntelliDAR™, is a state-of-the art airport surface management system. The system processes video from a series of video sensors networked together to provide real-time geospatial positioning of all targets in a given area. The video captured by the cameras is then processed using advanced computer vision algorithms in order to provide: non-cooperative target detection, continuous tracking, geospatial positioning, and a variety of target attributes. Like all Searidge products, IntelliDAR™ provides standard, open interfaces and can be integrated into an existing airport-ANSP system configuration.
