Brazilian Forensic Experts are developing a guide for indoor CCTV systems to be used as project reference that should bring several recommendations for design, installation and operation of such systems, taking into account forensic demands for evidence analysis. The vast majority of CCTV systems operating today is unsatisfactory, generating useless data for its owner, public security and criminal prosecution. Hopefully, the suggested guidelines and recommendations applied to surveillance, monitoring and identification systems and activities will result in a more efficient production of audiovisual high quality evidence. The guide will cover topics on security cameras, lenses, lighting, positioning, transmission, storage, testing, roadmaps, applicability and design requirements from the forensics point of view.
