Security

Public service institutions usually have a high need to protect service continuity, personal or confidential information and vulnerable or high-risk people. If a site is large, with lots of movement from many types of visitors and vehicles, this adds to the complexity of maintaining the required security level.

Automatic access control at gates

Nedap’s RFID readers keep security high at public service sites by ensuring authorized vehicles get fast, automatic access. They give the option for employees and other frequent users to have a tag in their vehicle so they can be identified quickly, at a distance.

Traffic flow

Although security is a priority, it shouldn’t hold up employees, visitors or anyone else authorised to use a site. The flow of vehicles must remain smooth, even during busy periods. So there must be an efficient way of identifying vehicles (and their drivers) to prevent queuing.

Optimal traffic flows at gates

Nedap’s automatic vehicle identification readers automatically identify vehicles and drivers on arrival. So they don't have to stop for vehicle access control at perimeter gates or individual zones. This helps to ensure smooth traffic flow and frees up time for security professionals to focus on other tasks.

Welcoming experience

In addition to regular visits, you also want to create a welcoming experience for your one-time visitors. These visitors are shortly known in advance and often it concerns a one-off or sporadic visit. How do you identify these vehicles and drivers on an efficient but secure way?

Visitor management

For visitors, using a QR code or virtual credential on their smartphone is more convenient for gaining access, and is less expensive, than an in-car tag. The NVITE reader can read multiple technologies, so visitors can use contactless identification – for example, by scanning a QR code or activating a smartphone credential.

FAQ

What are the best solutions for parking security?

The best parking security solutions depend on the desired security level and the user groups involved. Automatic vehicle identification using technologies such as UHF RFID, ANPR or mobile and card technologies can help, but the choice depends on the specific situation.

What are smart parking solutions for public buildings?

The choice of technology for parking access control at public buildings depends on the security level and the user groups involved. RFID, ANPR, or card technologies can be used to ensure safe and efficient access.

How does a license plate recognition parking solution work?

In a parking system with license plate recognition, an ANPR camera reads the license plate at entry and exit points. The system automatically checks whether the vehicle is authorized and grants access if approved, increasing security and preventing queues.

Can parking management solutions integrate with existing security systems?

Yes, Nedap’s systems integrate seamlessly with existing infrastructures, from visitor databases to gate management and security platforms. This allows access readers and cameras to work together within the same security system.
