Pogoń Szczecin Stadium
Customer StoriesThe Florian Krygier Stadium, home to Pogoń Szczecin, seats approx. 20,500 spectators. The stadium features four stands, offering an intimate and electrifying atmosphere.
Challenge
- High-Density Crowd Management – During matches, up to 20,500 spectators require constant monitoring and security teams need real-time situational awareness to prevent incidents.
- Complex Video Surveillance Needs – As stadium usage changes, the system must handle seamless camera transitions from routine monitoring to event conditions with higher FPS and multiple streams.
- Police cameras must stay separate for compliance but still work within the overall Video Management System.
- System Redundancy and Reliability – Servers must guarantee uninterrupted operation during high-profile events.
- Access Control Complexity – Multiple zones require differentiated access: employees, players, event staff, and special areas.
- The need for instant, accurate alerts from intrusion detection.
- Event days demand flexible access while keeping critical zones secure, which is difficult to manage.
Solutions
- Ensure full situational awareness: Security staff can monitor all areas in real time. One interactive interface gives staff real-time control over all 543 cameras.
- Capture every critical angle: Event mode increases footage per camera to 12, ensuring coverage of large crowds for safety and incident response.
- Support compliance and investigations: A tagging system stores event footage for 30 days (normal mode: 20 days), simplifying audits and incident review.
- Maintain legal compliance without disrupting operations: Separate police camera access allows secure monitoring within the same system.
Interactive Access Control
- Faster, safer decisions during incidents: Security staff can respond immediately to breaches or emergencies with the integrated interface that provides real-time access status and alarms.
- Streamline operations for different users: Tailored modes ensure employees, players, and event staff can access only what they need, reducing errors and confusion.
- Office-mode: Simplifies everyday employee access while keeping critical areas secure.
- Sports mode: Gives players and staff quick entry to training and locker areas without compromising safety.
- Event/match mode: Allows event personnel temporary access during events while keeping sensitive zones protected.
- Protect critical stadium zones: In specific zones, access can be granted only to personnel with special rights and intrusions can be detected immediately.
Scalability & NIS2 Compliance
Although the systems were originally installed a few years ago, they continue to provide flexible options for expansion, ensuring that the client can easily adapt to evolving requirements such as NIS2.
Robust Server Infrastructure
- Guarantee continuous operation: Four main servers with two redundant servers and automatic backups prevent downtime.
- Prevent surveillance gaps during failures: Failover systems switch automatically, maintaining uninterrupted monitoring during critical events.
