Video Surveillance System (VSS) Standard
Conclusion
INTRODUCTION
• A new Video Surveillance System (VSS) Standard for
Buildings was drafted in line with the improvement in
technology.
• VSS deployment to support and enhance the overall
management of a building’s security.
• Most effective when deployed with other security
measures (e.g. access control, alarm systems).

OBJECTIVES
Video Surveillance System (VSS) Standards
• Provides for a uniform and consistent approach for
the technical specifications, installation, operation
and performance of VSS across buildings in
Singapore.
• Provides guidelines to the industry in the
deployment of VSS
• Helps in security management and assist in post
incident investigations/reviews.

CAMERA
• Resolution of HD 1080p: 1920 x 1080 pixels or
its equivalent
– Widescreen: cover wider areas, lesser cameras
will be required

HD Resolution
CAMERA
• Resolution of HD 1080p: 1920 x 1080 pixels or
its equivalent
– Better Resolution
 Subject identification
 Illegal activities
detection
 Allows for the
addition of video
analytics subsystem

HD Resolution
CAMERA
• Network IP-based Cameras, recommended to be
compliance to Open Network Video Interface Forum
(ONVIF) standards
• Minimum height of 2m from floor level
• Vandal-resistant and Tamper-proof enclosure
• Good colour reproduction for easy identification
• Fixed Cameras are deployed to meet coverage
requirement; Pan-Tilt-Zoom (PTZ) Cameras
can be used as a supplement to fixed
cameras

COVERAGE REQUIREMENTS
• Lift lobbies
• Staircase landings
• Ingress/Egress for
Human/Vehicle
 For identification of vehicle /
person of interest entering /
exiting from the building
• Main entrance lobby
• Registration counter

COVERAGE REQUIREMENTS
• Public Access Areas
– Street areas within building’s boundaries
– Entrances / Exits to MRT stations

RECORDING
• Open-format CODEC and video
container format
• Period of Archival: 28 days + 10% buffer
• Basic Metadata: GPS time and date to be watermarked
on recorded images
• Image quality of HD1080p: 1920x1080
– Good quality images for post incident investigations
– Clear images allow for speedier identification of the subject
which will lead to faster apprehension of the perpetrator
• Recording and storage facility:
11
– Preventive measures against unauthorised removal/ viewing of
recordings
– Sited in the inner perimeter of the building
LIGHTING
• Ensure that the artificial/natural lighting does not
blind the camera view.
• Lighting should be continuous and sufficient to
support VSS coverage.
• Light source is recommended to be a minimum of
2m from the camera.
• Preferred position for the light
is above the camera.
12
CAMERA SYSTEM
• Reserve viewing terminal
– For Emergency Response Agencies
• System Integrator (SI) / Vendor to provide Software
Development Kit (SDK) for commands including
Select Camera, View, Extract, PTZ and Playback
• VSS designed and installed with a minimum f 20%
spare capacity for future expansion
• Signage
– Strategically located to inform the public that the
VSS is continuously monitored and recorded
– Building owners may opt for Digital TV instead
13
ALARMS & ANALYTICS
• Alarms may be installed to inform the users of
potential issues from the camera system:
– Video loss alarm
– Tamper alarm
• Video Analytics may be deployed to help the CCTV
operators in picking up suspicious activities
– Loitering
– Unattended bag
14
CONCLUSION
Video Surveillance System (VSS) Standard for Buildings
 A set of VSS Standard to provide guidelines to the
security industry in the deployment of VSS to enhance
the building’s overall security.
