SURVEILLANCE SERVICES

In many cases, this is an extremely effective method of information gathering. It provides both a detailed overview of the activities of the target and a 'snapshot' of certain specified issues.

Properly planned and executed, surveillance is a useful tool. To be effective, however, the project requires pre-planning which includes determining the number of agents to be assigned, selection of surveillance vehicles and deployment of the appropriate equipment.

Amera International uses a wide range of surveillance equipment and vehicles. Technical staff assist in the assessment phase of the program and highly trained surveillance agents carry out the mission.

All activities observed during the course of the project are documented in precise detail and are supported by video and audio evidence where applicable.

Surveillance is, however, target driven. This means that the results of a surveillance project are entirely dependant on the activities of the target. If the project involves surveillance of an individual suspected of engaging in illegal activities, the case cannot truly be considered a success if the target does not engage in such activities.

For this reason, surveillance is NOT deployed unless we have determined that there is a high likelihood of success.
