Discover the Powerful Impact of VORTEX: 80% Reduction in Vandalism

TAIPEI, Aug. 6, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — Sun Outdoors Ocean City, located in Maryland, is a popular campground that attracts a steady flow of visitors each season. With its expansive grounds and over 300 private campsites, the campground faced several challenges in managing security. Traditional surveillance methods proved inefficient, leading to false alarms and difficulties in tracking incidents such as lost children, vandalism, misplaced items, or occasional adventurous guests.

VIVOTEK has deployed its VORTEX cloud security solution at Sun Outdoors Ocean City, Maryland, enhancing the overall safety of the campground.

Challenges

As the campground grew in size and guest volume, Sun Outdoors realized that traditional surveillance systems were no longer sufficient, leading to four key challenges over the years:

  • Wide/Private Areas: With expansive grounds and numerous private campsites, it was difficult for staff to effectively monitor all areas of the campground.
  • Vandalism & Lost Items: Vandalism and the occasional theft of personal items or equipment were persistent issues.
  • Limited Staff: The campground struggled with insufficient staff to manage security and guest safety, especially during peak season when extra workers were needed. Additionally, there was a lack of IT experts to handle the complex security systems.
  • False Alarms: Previous security systems triggered frequent false alarms, leading to inefficiencies and distractions from real threats.

With a diverse mix of families and outdoor enthusiasts, ensuring guest safety while maintaining efficient operations was crucial. They needed a solution that would address both security and operational challenges—while being easy to set up, cost-effective, and providing real-time visibility without requiring additional manpower or expensive infrastructure upgrades.
