Operation Golden Phoenix was a collaborative anti-terrorism training exercise held July 21-24, 2008. Led by US Department of Homeland Security Customs and Border Protection, the County of San Diego, the City of San Diego and the U.S. Marine Corps Aircraft Group-46, the four-day exercise was designed to illustrate cooperative command, communications and logistical capabilities among local, state and federal agencies, which joined military assets to demonstrate a coordinated multi-agency humanitarian aid response to natural and man-made emergencies.
For its role in the exercises, SightLogix provided Thermal and Visible SightSensors, a standards-based, Intelligent Video Surveillance (IVS) system that integrates camera control, image processing and stabilization, geo-registered object tracking, and behavior analysis into a ruggedized, outdoor-ready enclosure.
The SightLogix system formed part of an integrated Golden Phoenix exercise designed to provide first responders, military, and homeland security teams with shared access to incident-specific information for quick positioning and rapid response to crisis situations.
SightLogix was invited to demonstrate a long-range, rapidly deployable perimeter security detection system that could be quickly and easily established regardless of terrain or available infrastructure.
SightSensors were used to establish a virtual perimeter around a designated "hot zone" for target tracking in geospatial time. By providing long-range target detection and tracking around a security event, emergency response teams were able to gain critical intelligence to contain a potential widespread contamination. All checkpoints and boundaries selected for constant video surveillance and detection for the duration of the exercise were monitored by SightLogix intelligent video surveillance technology.
