Remote monitoring systems are operating at facilities in a number of foreign countries and the United States. The systems are providing test beds on how to install and operate remote surveillance systems. The test results from the first months of operation indicate that remote monitoring systems with front-end detection can be used effectively for unattended surveillance. The first such system was installed at the High-Flux Australian Reactor. This article takes the concept from its current status and outlines developmental actions in a number of areas, including: (1) Front-end detection, (2) Independent verification, (3) Image compression and storage, (4) Removable storage media, (5) Acquisition and storage, (6) Data review, and (7) Key management.
