Types of Surveillance

While looking at the different types of surveillance options available today, Phoenix Private Investigations & Security llc uses many types of surveillance options. The first and most common is the Manned Surveillance option, followed up by the Unmanned Surveillance as seen bellow with information gathering.

Manned Surveillance

Surveillance images and video is often a key element when gathering evidence for a case. Here at Phoenix Private Investigation & Security we will generally start each surveillance assignment with an interview with the client to find out what they know about the individual and then follow that up with a cyber investigation to help gather information to determine what will assist us in locating and identifying the current whereabouts of the surveillance subject. This process can also reveal trends or patterns in the subjects daily schedule, or it may reveal any abnormalities that could prove detrimental to the case.  This process is also done to help determine if the subject has changed his or her physical appearance or if the subject displays any change in habits. During this phase of our investigation we utilize multiple internet databases, social media sites, and other resources to perform our search prior to beginning the physical part of surveillance.

Our team of investigators has the capability to successfully conduct surveillance in both urban and rural settings. When requested by the client, Phoenix Private Investigations & Security llc will send an investigator equipped with different types of camera equipment that will allow (him\her) to obtain pictures and/or video inside stores, businesses, or other locations visited by the surveillance subject.

Unmanned Surveillance

In addition to the traditional methods of surveillance, Phoenix Private Investigations & Security will often deploy unmanned, or remote cameras in situations where traditional methods may not be practical or cost-effective. This type of surveillance can produce a good amount of information with the least amount of cost, but it does have its limitation. For example, the surveillance subject may be moving in and out of the view of the cameras and being unmanned, we would be unable to reset or change the zoom, or direction of the camera, meaning your surveillance has ended until subject returns.
