LILIN Video Surveillance Plays a Vital Role in Flood Defense Plan in Venice


Advanced security cameras by LILIN are working hand in hand with the well-thought-out permanent flood protection, known as MOSE project, to protect the city of Venice, Italy from flooding

Suffer from severe flooding

The city Venice, Italy, suffers flooding on a yearly basis. In 1966, nearly eighty percent of the city was flooded by high tides. Known to Venetians as the “acqua alta” or “high water,” brings high waters that spill into the walkways and streets of Venice. It happens several times a year, and unfortunately it has got worse over the past century.

MOSE project has been set in motion to save Venice from the sea

The barrier project, known formally as “Experimental Electromechanical Module” project and informally as MOSE, is designed specifically to maintain high tides of as much as 2.7m from reaching the city. There are three inlets to the 500km2 lagoon, which will be activated when tides rise higher than 110cm inside the lagoon. During flooding, for example, when the water reaches above normal levels, the locks will spring into action. MOSE is scheduled for completion in 2014, and once finished, the system will protect Venice from high water levels of up to 3m.



Video surveillance from LILIN to oversee the water level

Video surveillance in the protection system of flood disasters in Venice is an important part of disaster monitoring process plays an irreplaceable role, and real-time monitoring of video surveillance around the key areas of water is must-needed in MOSE project. LILIN CCTV video surveillance solution was selected to be part of MOSE, all due to its exceptional quality of LILIN’s mechanical housings against sea environment corrosion as well as the cameras built-in with powerful IR solutions.
