I. GENERAL INFORMATION

a. INTRODUCTION. The USGS South Atlantic Water Science Center (SAWSC) is comprised of USGS offices in Georgia, North Carolina, and South Carolina. Since our merger in 2014, the Information Technology Unit has been working on consolidating our IT infrastructure, policies, and procedures with the goals of reducing operational costs, strengthening security, consolidating access logs, and creating efficiency in operations. We are working on consolidating our existing Camera systems. Although we were discussing updating our camera system in Norcross next fiscal year, a fire in the Norcross, GA office in June 2022 pointed to the importance of keeping equipment current and ensure our blind spots are covered to assist with emergencies and after hours issues. The ability to update the Norcross system to use the same NVR as our other offices will have the added benefit of allowing our IT staff the ability to learn one system, as well as research, patch, and remediate any found vulnerabilities to a common system throughout our Center.

b. BACKGROUND. The surveillance system in the Norcross office was installed in 2012. The current software used to view our cameras remotely is difficult to install. Implementing a consolidated camera system throughout our offices will make the ability to manage the system easier on staff to manage. Consolidating into the existing system saves time, money, resources, maintenance costs, and training needed to operate, maintain, and integrate a disparate system. All other SAWSC offices use Pro-V Station software.

c. DEFINITION/APPLICABLE DOCUMENTS.
