ISO 18788 is a standard developed by the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) that provides guidelines for private security operations management.

An Integrated Security System (ISS) refers to a comprehensive and interconnected network of various security components and technologies that work together to provide a cohesive and unified approach to security management.

Intelligent Transport System (ITS) provide smart means of transportation. ITS continuously monitor traffic conditions such as demand, weather and accidents through sensors. The obtained information is used to actively manage traffic.

Intelligent Video Analytics (IVA) refers to the application of artificial intelligence (AI) and computer vision techniques to analyze video data in real-time or post-processing. It enables surveillance systems to go beyond mere recording and monitori

Image resolution refers to the number of pixels captured in an image or video frame. The more pixels there are, the higher the resolution of the image/video and the more detail can be seen. Common image resolutions are HD, Full HD, WQHD and UHD / 4K.

Incident management refers to the structured approach and set of processes employed to handle and resolve incidents efficiently and effectively.

An Inductive Loop Traffic Detector detects vehicle presence through induction. The inductive loop consist of coiled wires which are installed in the road and a logic unit. Vehicles passing the loop can be detected through a loop field change.

Intersection monitoring refers to the systematic control of vehicle and pedestrian movements at road intersections to enhance safety and efficiency.

Intrusion detection system (IDS) in physical security refers to a security mechanism to detect unauthorized entry into a protected area or facility. It works by monitoring the environment for signs of intrusion, such as motion, heat, or sound.

Intrusion Detection Systems (IDS), also referred to as Intruder Detection Systems, are sophisticated security solutions designed to detect and alert individuals or security personnel about unauthorized access or breaches in physical premises. 

IoT connects smart devices and exchange data over the internet. This information is processed for various applications like monitoring, automation, and decision-making. It bridges physical objects with the virtual world

The Design Hour Factor or K-Factor is the proportion of Annual Average Daily Traffic (AADT) that occurs during the peak hour.

Key performance indicator (KPI) is a quantifiable performance measurement. Video Analytics can help to measure KPIs such as footfall.

Land and Hold Short Operations (LAHSO) operations include landing and holding short of an intersecting runway, an intersecting taxiway, or some other designated point on a runway other than an intersecting runway or taxiway.

Landing Time (LDT) is the time that an aircraft lands on a runway.

Loss Prevention (LP) helps retailers mitigate the risk of loss and preserve profit. Loss can be categorized into operational errors, internal theft, and external theft. LP can consist of dedicated LP staff, security Tags, cameras and video analytics.

License plate recognition (LPR) cameras are specialized security cameras designed to detect, capture, and log vehicle license plates. LPR cameras are used in a variety of applications, including law enforcement, traffic management and parking.

Landside management involves organizing and overseeing the non-airside areas of an airport, such as passenger terminals, parking lots, and ground transportation services.

Large Language Models (LLMs) are advanced deep learning algorithms designed for tasks like summarizing, translating, and text generation.

License Plate Readers are specialized security cameras designed to detect, capture, and log vehicle license plates.

Lidar (Light Detection and Ranging) is a technology used to measure distances by emitting laser pulses and then measuring the reflected pulses. It can be used in a variety of applications such as mapping, surveying, navigation, or scanning materials.

Littering Detection is a video analytics function that recognizes when trash is illegally thrown away.

LoRaWAN is a Low Power Wide Area Network (LPWAN) specification for wireless internet of things (IoT) systems.

Level of Service (LOS) is a quality measure describing operational conditions within a traffic stream, generally in terms of such service measures as speed and travel time, freedom to maneuver, traffic interruptions, and comfort and convenience.

Loading dock management refers to the process of overseeing and coordinating activities on loading docks, which are areas in facilities where goods are loaded onto and offloaded from trucks, trailers, or other modes of transportation.
