CAM-426
The pile is growing on the wrong side of the fence
Six in the evening. The entrance barrier is down. A white van has stopped outside the site with both rear doors open, and someone is unloading household waste and stacking it against the fence: washing machines, boards, an armchair, rubble and black bags. Thirty metres away, inside, are the skips where that material could be left at no cost. IRIS sees a vehicle stopped outside the tipping area and items piling up on the ground.

The rule
You decide once. IRIS applies it always.
If
a vehicle stops outside the tipping area and material starts piling up on the ground
Then
- alert the gatehouse with the camera and the time
- save the video from the moment the vehicle stops until it leaves
- file the alert in case the clean-up has to be claimed later
The instruction that set it up«Alert me if anyone unloads material outside the site, on the verge or against the fence, in or out of opening hours.»
What changes
What changes for whoever answers for the plant
The pile ends up being cleared by the plant, and paid for by the plant. If nobody sees it, it turns up on Monday and no one even knows when it happened. With the alert while it is happening, the guard can go out while the van is still there. And if he does not make it in time, there is video with the time, the vehicle and the pile growing. That video is what supports a claim or a complaint; without it, there is just a heap of rubbish with no owner.
What people usually ask
Is the recording useful for claiming back the clean-up cost?
Yes, as evidence of what can be seen. There is video from the moment the vehicle stops until it leaves, with the camera, the date and the time. It shows a vehicle stopped outside the tipping area and material piling up on the ground. What is done with that afterwards — a warning, a claim or a complaint — is decided by the plant, not by IRIS.
Does IRIS identify the person unloading?
No. IRIS does not recognise faces or match them against any database. What it detects is a situation: a vehicle stopped outside the permitted area and items appearing on the ground by the fence. The alert contains a camera, a time and a video. There is no name in it, and there will not be one.
Does it work at night or when the site is closed?
Yes, as long as the camera can see. With the area lighting or with a camera made for low light, the rule is the same at three in the morning as at six in the evening. And that is exactly when it is needed: off-zone dumping tends to happen with the site closed, which is when nobody is in front of a monitor.

It is a summary of the real screen: it plays by itself, step by step, and shows only the path of one case. The actual tool has far more than fits in here.

The motorway
Who watches an entire motorway?
10 cases: 8 raise an alert when something happens and 2 only measure. You see each image as it is, and then with what IRIS understands on top.
Public transport
Who watches a whole station at rush hour?
17 cases: 11 raise an alert when something happens and 6 only measure. You see each image as it is, and then with what IRIS understands on top.
And the best part
Finding something in yesterday’s videoshould take as long as asking for it.
No more scrubbing back through six hours with your finger on the mouse. You type what you are after, in plain words, and the matching moments come up. Same cameras as always.
