«You arrive at the control center, grandmothers are sitting there, each woman has 16 screens.

Nizhnevartovsk video surveillance system: results and plans.
Today, the mayor’s office of Nizhnevartovsk and employees of the Internal Affairs Directorate are considering increasing the number of video cameras to 250, which conduct round-the-clock video surveillance on streets, roads, squares, etc. city of Nizhnevartovsk.
According to law enforcement officers, thanks to the existing street cameras in Nizhnevartovsk, crime has significantly decreased.
The first video cameras in the city were installed several years ago, and Pelco video cameras were installed and purchased at the expense of the city budget, and the configurations and functions performed by Pelco video cameras are not used anywhere else in Russia.
All video cameras, and today there are about 150 of them, are installed in places with the greatest concentration of people, such as train stations, squares, parks, as well as in the darkest and least lit alleys.
As the police officers themselves explained, video cameras are designed in such a way that they not only record the face of the offender, but also, when setting the necessary parameters, they can recognize the suspect’s face among the crowd and send a signal to the law enforcement remote control.
And this is only a small part of their “useful qualities”; all cameras are also cold-resistant, which has been proven more than once by their trouble-free operation even in the most severe Siberian frosts.
So, today the issue of increasing the number of video cameras to 250 is being considered. , and this means the allocation of budget funds in the amount of about 2 million US dollars, but these are not the only costs, since servicing this system costs the municipality 7 million rubles.
But the costs are justified, explain the police officers, and proof of this is the reduction in crime in the city.
By the way..
Video surveillance of students and teachers will be prohibited in Turkish schools.
The Turkish Ministry of Education recognized the installation of surveillance cameras in school classrooms as a violation of the rights of teachers and students.
Now cameras are prohibited from being installed in classrooms of schools and kindergartens.
Turkish schools have been equipping classrooms, locker rooms, bedrooms and even toilets with cameras for several years now.
This is done so that parents can monitor their child via the Internet.
This is believed to play a positive role in education and discipline.
However, there are problems from a legal point of view.
The fact is that installing cameras without the consent of teachers and students is not just observation, but surveillance.
Spying on strangers is illegal and is prosecuted by the court.
And it is impossible to track whether a parent is watching his child or watching other children and teachers too.
The reason for the current ban was the trial of parents who watched not only their child, but also his classmates and teachers.
Parents will have to pay a fine of 40.5 thousand dollars to the treasury.
Now cameras will be installed in the corridors, at the entrance, in the school yard and sports field.</p >
That is, in those places where they will ensure security.
