Airport Security Construction under the New Standards of Seeking Common Development

With the rapid development of the security industry, the airport has become one of the important high-end segmentation market for security applications, and has been rapidly promoted and constructed in recent years. However, with the rapid expansion of airport construction, some regions have gradually built world-class airport clusters, and smart airports have become new targets for airport development. Many airports are actively exploring the construction of smart airports through technologies such as cloud computing, big data and artificial intelligence. The airport industry has ushered in a new stage of development. The policy direction of the airport, the security challenges, and the development and pattern of the airport's application requirements for security have undergone tremendous changes. Early security product technologies and standard specifications are difficult to adapt to the new airport security and management needs. In view of this, on October 1, 2017, the new version of "Civil Transport Airport Security Defence Facilities" (MH/T7003-2017, hereinafter referred to as the No. 7003 standard) was officially implemented, which will replace the "Civil Air Transport Airport Security Defence Facilities" ( MH/T7003-2008).

The new version of the standard is based on the construction of security facilities at the airport, and regulates the state and extent of the construction of airport security facilities. According to the regulations, after the implementation of the new standard on October 1, 2017, all airports, whether new or rebuilt, must be implemented according to the new standards. The grace period is 18 months, which means that there will be a large number of future periods. The airport needs to conduct a comprehensive inspection and upgrade of airport security in accordance with the new standards. The industry believes that the implementation of standards will have a substantial impact on the development of airport security applications. This time, what specific impact and promotion will the implementation of the new airport security standards bring to airport security? Under the current new situation and the development trend of new technologies, has the security application in this field has reached a new level? Where is the space and difficulty of construction? What stage is the construction of the smart airport currently in? What is the trend of future development? With these questions, industry companies are invited to discuss new standards and the current and future of airport security. I hope to inspire the industry.

Q: The new version of "Safety and Security Facilities for Civil Transport Airports" (MH/T7003-2017) has been officially implemented for more than three months. What important impact do you think the new requirements of the standard will have on airport security?

Jiang Zhengxu: MH/T7003-2017 new standard business needs are comprehensive and meticulous, involving video surveillance, perimeter crossings, traffic control and face recognition and other application requirements. The implementation of the new standard means that there will be a large number of airports in the country that need to carry out comprehensive inspection and upgrading of airport security in accordance with the new standards. Focusing on the two dimensions of “enclosure” and “video surveillance” in the new standard, I believe that it includes at least the following four aspects.

First, full coverage of HD surveillance. The new standard is very detailed for where high-definition monitoring is required. The airport management needs to perform scene application monitoring point blinding according to the requirements in the standard.

Second, storage expansion. In order to comply with the requirements of the Anti-Terrorism Law, the new standard stipulates that the video surveillance storage time limit is not less than 90 days, resulting in a geometric increase in the stored video data. It is believed that most airports will consider cloud storage products that solve storage bottlenecks for storage expansion to ensure data is more reliable and stable, and to cope with future video big data applications.

Third, the construction of video networking and security platform. The new standard requires that the video of the terminal, airside, landside, commercial super, parking lot, etc. be networked, and the platform is required to be able to access the security integration platform of many subsystems.

Fourth, promote the intelligent construction represented by face recognition. At present, some domestic airports have already started the pilot application of human-certification verification. After the implementation of the new standards, all airports should act.

Gu Chen: The impact of this standard revision on airport security construction is very large. First of all, the most intuitive feeling, the standard's attention to the security system has been greatly enhanced, regardless of the independent addition of video surveillance systems and security control centers (Chapters 15 and 16), or from the standard granularity refinement. Both put forward higher requirements for airport security.

Secondly, for the operation of the security system of the specific scene, the implementation standard that can be settled and accepted can be put forward. For example, the console of the alarm center clearly requires functions such as intrusion alarm, emergency alarm, fault alarm, alarm information review, self-test and electronic map. It not only defines the function items, but also specifies the operation mode. More reference.

At the same time, the new standard also pays attention to the linkage between security systems. It is clearly stated in the video surveillance system that it should be able to communicate with the traffic control, hidden alarm system, and perimeter intrusion alarm system to record and review the alarm site. This has important guiding significance for the construction of the airport security integration platform.

Hu Caixia: For the new standard, it is worth mentioning that it emphasizes the importance of the airport perimeter intrusion alarm system, and proposes that an intrusion alarm system should be set up in the perimeter of the first and second types of airports, and the intrusion alarm system should be set in the perimeter of the three types of airports. Wait for new requirements. Compared with the 2008 version of the standard, the new standard has a clearer preference for airport perimeter security, and specifies the functions and performance characteristics that the intrusion alarm system should meet. The content is more detailed and practical, and it is very practical. Strong, has a strong guiding significance for the security of the airport perimeter, and has a clear direction for future development. In the constant changes of regulations, as an intrusion alarm service provider, we are pleased to see that the perimeter security system has been increasing in the security construction of the airport and has received more and more attention.

At present, more than 80% of domestic airports and their supporting facilities are in the traditional defense stage of simple physical defense and civil air defense. Only a few airports adopt intelligent intrusion detection technology defense equipment based on IoT sensing technology. For example, a fiber optic vibration intrusion detector with innate passive and long-period characteristics. It is not difficult to predict that in the next 1-3 years, whether it is to renovate the airport or build a new airport, in the face of the 2020 "China's 13th Five-Year Plan for the Development of Civil Aviation", the general airport will reach more than 500 volumes, domestic airports and The intrusion alarm requirements of its supporting facilities will usher in a blowout burst.

Xie Jie: The first part of the new standard includes scope, normative references, terminology and general rules. The second part is described in terms of location and function of different areas of the airport, including airside, landside, terminal, airport perimeter and crossing, air cargo area, vital parts, catering and machine supplies. The third part is specific requirements for security technologies and systems commonly used in the above areas, and their performance indicators. Among them, the fifteenth chapter of the new version of the 7003 standard focuses on the detailed requirements of the airport security video surveillance system. In the past, the airport industry did not have system requirements and standards. In fact, other industries have begun to standardize and stipulate monitoring applications. This time, the airport industry has summarized and unified requirements, which is important for the development of airport security in the new stage. Guiding direction and significance.

Q: From MH/T7003-2008 to MH/T7003-2017, what are the important changes in the airport security field in the past ten years? What is the current market situation?

Jiang Zhengxu: The changes in airport security in these years are reflected in the following aspects:

First, change from a clear-cut to understandable business needs. Due to the airport construction cycle from design to bidding, to landing application for at least 5 years, the airport monitoring equipment that landed before 2013 is mainly based on analog standard definition. First of all, solve the problem of seeing clearly, and simulate the standard-definition monitoring equipment to be upgraded in HD. However, it is extremely inconvenient to rebuild the cable in the airport terminal. For this situation, our company will adopt the HDCVI coaxial HD solution. The original coaxial cable wiring does not need to be modified, and the front-end analog standard-definition camera is directly replaced with an analog high-definition camera. Video streaming can also perform a series of intelligent processing.

Second, changes in airport video networking applications. The security monitoring of the airport is often divided into several parts, such as airside, landside, parking lot, terminal building, and business super. These are all responsible for the construction and operation of different competent departments, so each subsystem is relatively isolated, and in recent years, it has begun to show a trend of unified management of the network. This new standard specifically mentions the need to carry out large-scale unified management and construction of video, from simple video surveillance to large security changes.

Guchen: In 2008-2017, it was not only a decade of development and soaring of the civil aviation industry, but also a decade of comprehensive transformation of the security market from the ancient times of analog video to the era of comprehensive high-definition, digital, three-dimensional prevention and control, and multi-dimensional perception. Although the standards have not been updated, the airports have done a lot of meaningful work based on their security needs:

The first is a comprehensive high-definition digital transformation. Old analog and SD equipment can no longer meet the requirements of use, major airports have promoted equipment upgrades and upgrades; second, new product applications in key defense areas. For example, in panoramic scenes such as runways and taxiways, panoramic cameras are used. Towers, substations and other vital parts use thermal imaging cameras. Stations, parking stands and other scenes use gun-ball linkage, which can better adapt to the scene. The third is the combination of technical defense and civil air defense. In the past, airport security relied more on manual verification and processing, resulting in continuous increase in labor costs, and the accuracy and timeliness could not be guaranteed. In recent years, airports have also vigorously promoted the transformation of intelligent applications, such as electronic patrols. The license plate video recognition, electronic fence linkage video bullet map, etc., to a certain extent, reached the combination of technical defense and civil air defense, greatly improving work efficiency.

However, from the current situation of the market, these tasks are still far from enough. In the current complicated international security situation, civil aviation aviation security faces many new situations and new threats, which poses severe challenges to airport security work. The airport integrated security system is under tremendous pressure, which is the comprehensive security system of the airport. System construction puts forward more specialized technical requirements. At the same time, under the framework of big data, cloud storage, cloud computing and Internet of Things, the concept of integrated security in modern airports tends to be integrated and specialized, and security technology is deeply integrated with airport business applications and business systems to achieve business management efficiency. The improvement has also become a major demand of airport users.

Q: What do you think is the focus of the current enterprise competition in the airport security field? Software, hardware or service?

Guchen: From the current situation and long-term development, the competition will still be an all-round existence.

In the traditional security market, the hardware competition is generally considered to be more intense, especially in the field of airport security. The international and domestic first-line brands are all good at winning the field, and they have come up with their highest-level equipment to compete, star-level, panoramic, and transparent. The characteristics of fog and infrared have also played an important role in the field of airport surveillance in recent years. However, with the narrowing of the gap between manufacturers in such technologies and the advancement of the Internet trend, Smart+AI has become the next battleground for hardware competition.

In the field of software, how to realize the interconnection and intercommunication of various systems is the most important concern of all manufacturers. In the airport field, due to historical reasons, most of the security system construction has not considered the system integration related work. How to break the information island and truly organize and use the security system is a problem that all manufacturers must solve.

The service field is relatively close to the manufacturers in the airport security field. Given the landmarks and facades of the airport in a city, how to achieve fast and efficient service has always been the focus of the manufacturers.

Jiang Zhengxu: We believe that the current manufacturers in the airport industry are all-round competition, which is the overall solution we often say, including the function of the software, the reliability of the hardware, whether the service is thoughtful and timely. At present, the scale of the airport is getting bigger and bigger, and the passenger traffic is getting higher and higher. Especially the super-class airport represented by North, Shanghai, Guangzhou, Shenzhen and Kunming. The annual passenger throughput has exceeded 50 million. The security situation is getting more and more. The more complicated it is, the higher the requirements are.

For example, the control of civil vehicle license plate vehicles requires the manufacturer's algorithm to accurately identify the civil aviation license plate. It is necessary to differentiate the algorithm. For example, the aircraft activity area may only need to be partially seen and seen before. The conventional D1 and 720P. The gun machine is enough. However, it is still necessary to perform a panoramic mosaic display, and a single screen can display a large scene, and the conventional front end cannot meet this requirement. This prompted manufacturers to develop front-end products with panoramic stitching, such as Dahua's panoramic gun and panoramic dome series. One camera integrates 4 to 8 2 megapixel cameras, and the front end automatically completes 180-degree and 360-degree panoramic stitching. There is no need to deploy too many front ends, and there is no need to deploy a dedicated panoramic splicing server, which is cost-effective for customers and simple for construction and maintenance.
