[show]We highlight some of the most common deployment scenarios for the covert variant of WCCTV's mobile surveillance units.
What Are The Use Cases for Covert Surveillance Cameras?
Covert surveillance cameras provide multiple benefits for law enforcement and government applications where discreet 24/7 monitoring is required.
WCCTV's Covert 4G Mini Dome contains an HD PTZ camera and edge video recording concealed within an environmentally tested housing that is easy to deploy and blends into its environment.
Our covert units run continuously throughout the day, capturing the vital evidence needed to support criminal investigations. Live, and archived footage can be streamed remotely using our license-free software and/or mobile app.
Our units have supported multiple law enforcement agencies and protected valuable assets and infrastructure at construction sites, oilfields, parking lots, and more.
Below, we have listed the key use cases for mobile surveillance cameras.

Covert Surveillance for Law Enforcement
Law Enforcement applications are the most common deployment for WCCTV's Covert Surveillance units. The systems gather evidence 24/7 and act as an effective force multiplier, giving departments extra eyes on the ground.
WCCTV's Covert 4G Mini Dome is a plug-and-play surveillance camera that can be easily and quickly mounted on a pole or structure with access to power. It is designed for one-person, 10-minute deployment and offers remote connectivity utilizing 4G cellular networks.
Typical law enforcement covert monitoring applications include major events, narcotics investigations, SWAT operations, etc.
Covert Surveillance For Construction Sites
Typically, WCCTV would not specify a covert unit as the primary surveillance solution for construction site security.
We firmly believe that providing highly overt surveillance as a visual deterrent is the most effective way to secure your job sites.
We back these overt cameras with video monitoring and live audio challenges to warn of potential intruders. We believe taking a passive approach to security only feeds criminality.
However, covert surveillance cameras offer a potential benefit in investigating theft by employees and contractors. This type of theft still plagues job sites, particularly with the high resale value of construction materials.
Strategically placed cameras can help identify those involved with inside theft.
Covert Surveillance Cameras for Parking Lots
As with construction sites, WCCTV almost always specifies its highly-overt LotGuard surveillance units for Parking Lot Security.
LotGuard units are specifically designed to detect, mitigate, and report criminal activity in parking lots via a proactive crime prevention process.
However, covert systems also play a role within a parking lot environment. They are an ideal solution for criminal investigations for accidents and hit-and-runs. Placing cameras in strategic locations will deliver high-quality video evidence that helps identify guilty parties.
Covert Surveillance for Critical Infrastructure
Covert surveillance cameras can be utilized to protect the most valuable assets at oilfields and energy facilities.
They provide peace of mind by allowing users to remotely monitor a location without site visits and costly security guard visits.
Installing covert cameras lets you see your oil and gas site at all hours.
WCCTV 4G Covert Dome
The WCCTV 4G Covert Mini Dome provides discreet surveillance in response to any crime situation.
It is an all-in-one solution that combines an HD PTZ camera, 4TB of edge video recording, and 4G LTE transmission technology hidden inside a durable, covert housing that blends into its surroundings.
It is easy to install onto a utility pole or building, is easy to maintain, and can be moved to new locations as your surveillance requirements change.
