Identify, locate and investigate people across monitored environments with AerWatch® facial recognition and real-time video intelligence.
AerWatch helps authorised security and operational teams recognise persons of interest, receive immediate watchlist alerts, search recorded sightings and understand movement across multiple cameras and zones.
As AerVision’s Value-Added Distributor in Qatar, QRTD supports system integrators and technology partners with solution architecture, demonstrations, licensing, technical enablement and manufacturer coordination.
Turn Video into Identity Intelligence
Traditional CCTV records activity but still requires operators to manually review footage and determine who appeared, where they went and when they were last seen.
AerWatch adds an intelligent facial-recognition layer to compatible camera and video-management environments. Detected faces can be compared with authorised databases, organised into defined groups and linked to recorded sightings and movement events.
This supports faster investigation, improved situational awareness and more effective response without requiring operators to continuously monitor every video feed.
Person-of-Interest and Watchlist Detection
AerWatch allows authorised users to organise enrolled individuals into predefined groups, such as:
- Persons of interest.
- Restricted or blacklisted individuals.
- Employees and authorised personnel.
- VIPs.
- Contractors.
- Frequent visitors.
- Missing or vulnerable persons.
When a matching individual is detected, the platform can generate a real-time notification and associate the event with the camera, location, timestamp and relevant video footage.
Different workflows can be configured according to the group and operational requirement, from discreet operator notification to escalation through the wider security environment.
Face Trail: Trace Movement Across Zones
AerWatch Face Trail helps authorised users understand how a recognised individual moved through a monitored environment.
The platform can reconstruct information such as:
- Initial detection point.
- Subsequent camera sightings.
- Movement between monitored zones.
- Entry and exit points.
- Time spent in particular areas.
- Last known location.
- Sequence and timing of recorded appearances.
This can assist with incident investigation, locating missing people, reviewing suspicious activity and understanding movement through airports, campuses, commercial facilities and other large environments.
Face Recall: Search Recorded Video by Image
Face Recall allows an authorised operator to upload or select a facial image and search for matching appearances across available recorded footage.
Instead of manually reviewing many hours of video, users can retrieve relevant sightings and examine:
- Where the individual appeared.
- When each appearance occurred.
- Which cameras recorded the person.
- The associated images and video clips.
- Movement across different parts of the site.
This can significantly accelerate post-event investigation, visitor audits and searches for missing or wanted individuals.
Facial Recognition Mustering
During an emergency or evacuation, AerWatch can help determine who has reached a designated muster area.
Facial recognition can identify enrolled individuals as they enter the area, supporting:
- Automated emergency roll calls.
- Identification of missing personnel.
- Faster reconciliation of staff and contractors.
- Improved accountability during evacuations.
- Compliance and post-event reporting.
The final mustering workflow should be designed around the organisation’s emergency procedures, camera coverage and enrolment policies.
Unique People Counting
Conventional people counting may count the same person more than once when they leave and re-enter a location.
AerWatch can use recognised faces to support deduplicated counting, helping organisations estimate the number of unique individuals visiting a site or zone.
This can provide more meaningful insight for:
- Unique visitor measurement.
- Occupancy analysis.
- Repeat-visitor identification.
- Staff-presence monitoring.
- Event attendance.
- Footfall reporting.
AerVision presents facial recognition people counting as a method of reducing repeated counts of the same individual across monitored areas.
Applications Across Multiple Environments
Airports and Transportation
Facial recognition can support identity checks, person-of-interest alerts, missing-person searches and investigation across terminals, checkpoints, boarding areas and transport hubs.
Government and Critical Infrastructure
AerWatch can help identify authorised personnel and persons of interest around controlled buildings, sensitive areas and critical assets.
Corporate and Commercial Facilities
The platform can support employee, contractor and VIP identification, visitor management and investigation of security events.
Healthcare and Public Facilities
Authorised facial search and movement tracing can assist in locating vulnerable, missing or unauthorised individuals across complex facilities.
Education and Campuses
Facial recognition can support authorised identification, access monitoring and investigation across campus buildings and outdoor areas.
Retail, Hospitality and Venues
Organisations may use approved face groups to identify VIPs, frequent visitors or individuals requiring security attention, subject to privacy and organisational policies.
Integration with Existing Security Systems
AerWatch can be designed to work with existing IP cameras, recorded video and Video Management Systems, subject to technical assessment.
A complete solution may integrate with:
- CCTV cameras.
- Video Management Systems.
- Access-control platforms.
- Security control rooms.
- Alarm and notification workflows.
- Incident-management systems.
- Central monitoring environments.
AerVision’s broader platform is designed to add analytics to existing surveillance workflows and infrastructure rather than operating only as an isolated application.
Camera and Environmental Requirements
Facial-recognition performance depends on the quality of the available facial image.
The technical assessment should consider:
- Camera position and viewing angle.
- Distance from the subject.
- Facial image size.
- Lighting and backlighting.
- Head orientation.
- Image resolution.
- Motion blur.
- Crowd density and occlusion.
- Network and server performance.
- Quality of enrolled reference images.
QRTD and the system integrator review these factors before finalising the architecture and expected use cases.
Privacy, Governance and Authorised Use
Facial recognition should be deployed only for clearly defined and authorised purposes.
The solution design should establish:
- Who may enrol or search individuals.
- Which groups and watchlists are permitted.
- How alerts are reviewed and verified.
- How long biometric records and events are retained.
- Which users can access searches and reports.
- How audit logs and access controls are managed.
- Which privacy, cybersecurity and organisational policies apply.
The use of facial recognition should always be subject to the customer’s legal, privacy and governance requirements.
