sDVR (spatial Digital Video Recorder)

Red Hen Systems is pleased to release its spatial Digital Video Recorder (sDVR). The sDVR is a complete, real-time geospatial MPEG2 video encoding system. It is a dramatic improvement in the way video is recorded, collecting time and location data along with the video, resulting in an information rich data set all on a removable hard drive. sDVR data sheet (PDF format)

What does the sDVR do?

The sDVR is designed for simple operation and reliability in strenuous application environments such as aircraft, land vehicles or water vessels. Significantly advances spatial video collection capacity - 80 GB drives store up to 20 hours of data. Streamlines the conversion of spatial video into a map - no data processing is required Capable of recording four simultaneous video sources Encodes GPS position along with voice annotation into the video recording Each removable hard drive can store up to 20 hours of high quality video Integrated VMS technology has the same gps encoding features customers have come to rely on as Red Hen's other VMS 300 and VMS-X products What is the value of the sDVR?

Greatly enhances data collection capability beyond one hour tapes Creates geospatial indexes in real time Video is automatically associated with the time and location in which it was collected and saved to a map Tedious and time consuming post-mission conversion of collected video is completely eliminated Data processing has been transformed into a rapid import operation Compatible with MediaMapper Video edition or GeoVideo for ArcGIS software Decision making time is reduced from days to near real time Increase efficiency of data analysis and reduce tome to execute a response The sDVR is a natural fit into any scenario required to map large volumes of data including aerial patrol of pipelines, power lines, waterways, natural disasters, defense and intelligence reconnaissance missions, highway and rail corridor mapping to name a few.
