Lockheed Martin recently selected spatial information management software provider Intergraph Corp. as a subcontractor for the New York Metropolitan Transportation Authority (MTA) security system upgrade project.

Intergraph will provide its command and control software as part of Lockheed’s Integrated Electronic Security System and Command, Communications and Control (IESS/C3) program.

In August, MTA awarded a $212 million contract to Lockheed to design and implement the system, which will feature enhanced monitoring, surveillance, access control, intrusion detection and response capabilities. Lockheed also will install more than 1,000 cameras and 3,000 sensors throughout MTA’s system, as well as motion and perimeter sensors, intelligent video and closed-circuit television systems.
