Abstract

The main task of the State Border Guard is to ensure the inviolability of the state border, including the prevention of illegal crossing of the state border. Modern technical means and innovative technologies for monitoring and controlling the state border and the border strip play an important role in the successful and efficient performance of the mentioned task. The purpose of the study: to evaluate innovative area surveillance and movement detection systems, their integration possibilities in a single platform, the possibilities of creating technically and technologically developed infrastructure and compatibility with technical means, the possibilities of information visualization and processing in the context of the implementation of border surveillance measures. The study aims to analyze the current state of the technical monitoring system of Latvia's external land border, to study its development directions, and to identify future perspectives, considering both national and international security threats. This work will examine both technological and organizational aspects related to border surveillance, as well as possible improvements and innovations that could increase the system's efficiency in the future.
