DVR CCTV Data Recovery & Enhancement Services

Do You Need To Recover Lost DVR / CCTV Images?

Data Clinic will recover your DVR and CCTV data. If you have CCTV data recorded on a DVR system that you can no longer view, maybe because the system won’t play the footage back, or it’s been deleted, or the recorder and hard drives have been damaged: as long as the data still exists Data Clinic can retrieve it.

Retrieve & Enhance Your CCTV DVR Images

CCTV has become an ever more widespread weapon against crime; its very presence is a deterrent to people who are looking for opportunity, opportunity with a criminal motive. Often petty criminals will simply go elsewhere if they think there is video surveillance. That is not always the case of course and the provision of CCTV evidence in identifying a crime and finding a culprit has become an important tool for police and the judicial system.

Recording CCTV to DVR Hard Disk

DVR’s operate by recording CCTV data on to hard disk and can be viewed with date and time details. Some monitoring is done on a much smaller scale; perhaps a PC which provides security for a room. Their encoding systems are Microsoft or Linux based

The technique of CCTV Data Recovery is the same as that used for all hard disk data retrieval. DVR’s have the same problem as anything using a hard disk and our research and development department has ensured that we lead the field in data retrieval from hard disks in hardware and CCTV.

CCTV and DVR Problems

From time to time there are problems with either the DVR technology (often related to the hard disk drive) or the CCTV camera system and while it may not be a regular occurrence there is a demand for companies that can repair equipment and equally important retrieve lost data which might be useful in identifying someone who has committed a crime. Similarly, recorded CCTV video and audio can often be of poor quality such that words are difficult to identify and actions are difficult to see.

Data Clinic’s CCTV Audio and Video Enhancement Service

A recent addition to our CCTV recovery services is our ability to enhance both video and audio clarity from recorded footage. We are able to to identify specific frames and audio segments that can be used to enhance the overall recording and produce video stills that enable (for example) face and numberplate recognition where this was not earlier possible. This service has been of great benefit since we developed it and is frequently used. The example above shows a simple example on how footage can be cleaned up and enhanced.

Locations

We have a number of branches across the UK giving us a good geographical spread. In addition each branch runs a free collection service so we are able to attend to your problem extremely quickly. It may be that there is extreme urgency in identifying someone who may be likely to cause further problems if he or she is not apprehended. This is an emergency and we will treat it as such. The CCTV data recovery service is invaluable and ensures that a criminal does not avoid protection because of a failure of the technology.
