Case Study: King Abdulaziz International Airport achieves enhanced security and major cost savings with Avigilon high-definition surveillance

King Abdulaziz International Airport - Customer Case Study

King Abdulaziz International Airport (KAIA) in Saudi Arabia needed a high-performance, reliable and easy-to-use surveillance solution across its 13 parking lots, terminal lobbies, retail shops, duty‑free areas and restaurants to strengthen security, speed investigations, and protect travelers and airport assets.

KAIA deployed 274 Avigilon HD cameras (1–16 MP) managed with Avigilon Control Center and High‑Definition Stream Management, streaming 24/7 to a central control room. The rollout delivered clear, irrefutable evidence for faster investigations, enabled inventory and operations monitoring, reduced camera count from 2,300 analog units to 274—cutting installation and labor costs—used minimal bandwidth and produced a significant return on investment.
