The vagaries of the weather (like strong winds, storms, tornadoes, and earthquakes), various dangerous work situations (accidents, fires, or leakage of harmful substances), as well as unwanted birds around airports, have a massive impact on the safety of all people at the airport. In recent decades, there have been continuously increasing threats of terrorist attacks as well. For airport passengers and staff to feel safe and secure, state-of-the-art technologies and reliable safety and security systems must be used.

Why build a mass warning system at airports
The vagaries of the weather (like strong winds, storms, tornadoes, and earthquakes), various dangerous work situations (accidents, fires, or leakage of harmful substances), as well as unwanted birds around airports, have a massive impact on the safety of all people at the airport. In recent decades, there have been continuously increasing threats of terrorist attacks as well. For airport passengers and staff to feel safe and secure, state-of-the-art technologies and reliable safety and security systems must be used.
Description of the mass warning system at the airport
A powerful mass warning and notification system designed for airports and offered by the Telegrafia company usually consists of one to ten sirens, depending on the size of the airport. A comprehensive and intuitive control system is provided by the OCP16 control panel or Vektra® software applications. Special mobile sirens can also be used that can be easily placed on various vehicles.
- The mass warning system covers the entire airport with a warning signal and serves mainly:
- for mass public warning,
- for evacuation in case of danger,
- for reporting emergencies,
- for scaring birds off airport land to avoid bird-plane collisions.
- The notification system promptly informs the responsible persons/responders in the form of a voice or text message of the occurrence of an emergency. It saves valuable time for making the necessary decisions.
The airport warning and notification system solution is designed to comply with the most stringent current standards set for its reliability and robustness, helping to meet all modern safety and security requirements of the 21st century.

The control centre
The control centre is equipped with the OCP16 control panel or highly automated Vektra® Warning and Vektra® Notification software applications. The entire technology is perfectly safe and fully backed up.
.
Electronic sirens
The electronic sirens cover a large area with an acoustic signal. They remain well-audible and intelligible even when reproducing the spoken word. Each siren can be activated individually or as part of a group and controlled locally or from the control centre.
.
Communications infrastructure
It ensures communications between the control centre and other elements of the airport warning system and at the same time, allow the integration of the early warning system into any superior warning system.
Notification of the responders, who are:
- immediately informed of any emergency by telephone or SMS message
- summoned to work and rescue operations.
