Site Surveys

DMT can provide site surveys for the customer.   A site survey is an evaluation of a customer’s site for determining the type and placement of security sensors that will optimize performance.  Available funds, the threat, operations, redundancy, maintenance requirements, and the size of the property greatly influence the final configuration.

A site survey can be done using programs such as Google Earth and other mapping programs suchs as ESRI, or in person.   DMT site surveys are not only conducted to determine radar locations, but cameras, non-lethal response equipment (directed sound, water cannons), communication, mounting platforms, and command centers are also considered.   Please contact sales@dmtradar.com for more information!
