After the tragedy of 9-11 when homeland security was first set into place authorities took security up to another level. For tourists visiting the Statue of Liberty there were already security cameras that were apparent for them to see. These cameras of course were there for the protection of all the visitors that traveled to see the Statue of Liberty. And, to protect against any vandalism that might come to the Statue of Liberty itself. And many of these security cameras were within the Statue Of Liberty and just outside the entrance.
However, after the 9-11 tragedy more measures were taken. Homeland security took the offensive and the "lady of liberty" was their assistant. Now, more security cameras are on the Statue of Liberty however in places that the tourists cannot see. Up high and out of sight. Some not even in the Statue Of Liberty at all. These security cameras are not set to view the inside at all, but instead the area around the Statue of Liberty. High frequency and high resolution with long range security cameras face out away from American borders. These security cameras are part of the homeland security program. Another way to prevent any kind of attack on the United States. This is only one area where these security cameras can be found on America's borders.
These type of security cameras won't be found for sale in companies. The range and viewing distance on these security cameras exceed any of the other security cameras sold to consumers. The frequency they are set on, are their own as well. They are remotely operated and very "high tech."
There are those who keep up with these security cameras and that they are working properly. The high frequency enables the security cameras to distribute images and display from long distances and they don't interfere with other items that might use frequencies. Other frequencies don't interfere with them either. In all reality the statue of liberty is a very good spot to put high range and reception security cameras. Especially as high tech as they are. The idea of being able to handle the elements of the weather as well as change angles is incredible.
And there's a chance that more security cameras are in different areas of the border as a part of homeland security as well. However, just where cannot be confirmed. Some people seem to think there are security cameras on almost all of the tallest buildings in major cities although it's uncertain. And to some, they wonder if the security cameras can even be seen. Security cameras are equipped even as smaller devices to have high range and reception just as the big ones as well.
The security cameras are there and in other places for the security of America. It just lets you know that we are safe. I personally have no problem with the idea that security cameras like this, that we cannot see are out there, and are providing a job of helping secure the livelihood of our country.
Truck stops all over the United States have security cameras installed all over the parking lots. And there are also security cameras within the store and the restaurant where the truck drivers come in to dine. Many of these truck stops realize that truck drivers pull into these places to sleep and shower among other things. The use of security cameras in these places are more in the area of where the truck drivers actually park their trucks. This might sound like it is a waste of security camera use, that the security cameras should be focused more on say the gas and diesel fuel pumping areas. However, there are security places in these areas also.
The reason for so many security cameras in the areas where the trucks actually park to allow the drivers to sleep, is in all honesty a good one. This is the area of high solicitation believe it or not, and most truck stops do not allow solicitation on the truck stop premises. There is also the high rate of female solicitation to the truck drivers, and this being a growing offense, truck stop owners are trying to take extra measures in order to intervene and have the actual prevention of this occurring on the premises.
Another problem in this area is people coming up to the truck drivers wanting rides to different locations. To some of the truck drivers they don't like it and consider it harassment, so the next trip through they might not stop at this particular truck stop and this causes the truck stops to lose money as well. While to other truck drivers solicitation and being asked for a ride doesn't bother them. However, with the use of security cameras and the parking lots being well lit, this problem is ceasing to some point. The security cameras that the truck stops use are in plain view, and on purpose. They want people and drivers to see the security cameras in the attempt to prevent so much solicitation. These security cameras are also designed to withstand the elements of the weather.
In any case, for truck stop owners most will say initially that the security cameras are an asset in the areas of the gas pumps as well as in the store and restaurant itself. But they will also admit that by placing security cameras in the areas where the trucks actually park for drivers to sleep have lowered the act of solicitors and hitch hikers looking for a ride.
Different problems that truck stops have been enduring have slowed if not stopped completely, through the use of more of the security cameras being placed in the positions around the truck stop. Therefore creating a better and safer atmosphere.
More truck drivers are willing to stop to sleep well they feel there is less of a chance of being robbed or having to be hassled by those wanting a ride or for other reasons mentioned in the article, allowing truck stops to make a bigger profit in the end,
