Vancouver International Airport (YVR) · British Columbia, Canada · transportation

Vancouver International Airport serves as a highly active global hub that must maintain uncompromising security standards without disrupting the continuous flow of operations. A critical component of this responsibility is managing access to restricted areas, such as baggage handling zones, where only authorized personnel are permitted to enter.

To strengthen these access points, the airport implemented an intelligence-first video security solution tailored to the specific spatial context of its doorways. By deploying intelligent cameras with built-in video analytics, the system instantly detects if a second person attempts to follow an authorized worker through a vestibule or if a large cart is used to obscure someone from view.

When a risk is identified, the system automatically prevents the secondary door from unlocking and sends a real-time alert to the security operations center. By filtering out noise and delivering highly accurate understanding directly to operators, the airport has fortified its access control measures while removing operational friction, ensuring the environment remains secure and uninterrupted.
