Extending Storage by 10x with Low-Bandwidth Transmission

Optimized Train Surveillance

Solutions for Railway

Ensuring Safe, Smart, and Efficient Railway Operations with Advanced Video Compression Technology

Modern railway networks demand continuous, reliable surveillance to ensure passenger safety, protect critical infrastructure, and maintain smooth train operations. Vortex Global delivers a next-generation monitoring ecosystem powered by OmniCompressor and Vortex NVR, enabling real-time, high-quality video transmission over any network medium — even in bandwidth-challenged environments.

Vortex Global’s Solution

Vortex Global is proposing a solution to address the problem of Storage transmitting live video feeds over any network medium. Vortex Global OmniCompressor software with Vortex NVR compresses video feeds by up to 95%.

Vortex NVR will be installed at each Coaches and Locomotives, take stream directly from camera compresses feeds then will be transmitted to Central locations.

Benefits Overview

The above example illustrates compression up to 90%, extending 7 days of recording to 70 days with only 1TB of storage capacity needed, compare to 10TB without compression. The bandwidth required also tremendously reduced from 2000kbps to 200kbps due to the unique compression technique.

OmniCOMPRESSOR reduces bandwidth consumption by up to 90% for live video streams and huge saving in storage capacity. OmniCOMPRESSOR supports most brands of cameras and video formats such as 4K (UHDTV), 1080p (HDTV), MJPEG, H.264, H.265.

Challenges in Railway Surveillance

Railway authorities face multiple surveillance challenges:

  • Long-distance track monitoring over low-bandwidth networks

  • High camera density in stations, platforms, corridors, and train yards

  • Large storage requirements for continuous 24/7 recording

  • Need for real-time alerts for accidents, trespassing, and operational hazards

  • Difficulty integrating diverse IP cameras from multiple vendors

Vortex Global solves these challenges with intelligent, high-efficiency video compression and optimized NVR technology.

Our Proposed Railway Surveillance Infrastructure

Railway Environment Configuration

  • Stations: 1,000+ cameras including platforms, ticket counters, waiting halls, entrances, parking areas

  • Train Yards: Cameras monitoring locomotives, rolling stock, maintenance zones

  • Tracks & Level Crossings: Long-distance outdoor cameras

  • Control Rooms: Central and regional controllers
