A camera does not answer a security need by itself. Good design begins with the scenes that must be understood, the events that must be retrieved and the people authorised to use the images.
Define one objective for each zone
An entrance, checkout and internal corridor require different angles and levels of detail. Write whether each view must detect, observe, recognise or identify.
Observe real light, backlighting, mounting height and obstacles on site. Resolution cannot compensate for poor framing.
Size the complete chain
Cameras, PoE network, recorder, disks, backup power and operator station form one chain. Estimate bitrate, retention and simultaneous use together.
Document addressing, named accounts and update responsibilities so the system remains maintainable.
Prepare real operation
Before handover, rehearse a realistic incident: find a sequence, export it, verify time settings and confirm who may access it.
Questions to resolve
- Which zones must be understood, and why?
- How many days of recording are genuinely required?
- Who may view, export and administer the system?
