The Challenge
The Field of Dreams movie site, a popular tourist attraction in Iowa, was the victim of a senseless act of vandalism in April 2018. The damage was extensive and included the destruction of expensive irrigation equipment. The site, which attracts more than 110,000 visitors annually, was left vulnerable and in need of a security solution to prevent future incidents. The challenge was to find a cost-effective solution that could provide comprehensive coverage of the site, including the retail sales area and the field itself, and could be monitored remotely.
About The Customer
The Field of Dreams movie site is a popular tourist attraction in Iowa, United States. The site is the location of the 1989 Academy Award-nominated movie, “Field of Dreams,” and attracts more than 110,000 visitors annually. The site is open 365 days a year and is described as the world’s largest pickup baseball game. Visitors come to run the bases or explore the corn field. The site also includes a retail sales area. The site is managed by Denise Stillman.
The Solution
The solution to the security challenge at the Field of Dreams site was a video surveillance system provided by 3xLOGIC. The system was installed by integrator Ci3 and included a 3xLOGIC 8-channel V250 NVR, a 3xLOGIC thermal imager pointed at the bridge leading to the site entrance, a 3xLOGIC 3 MP mini-dome to cover the retail sales area, and two cameras covering the field itself. The system was designed to provide comprehensive coverage of the site and could be monitored remotely using the 3xLOGIC mobile app, View Lite II. The system provides a great deterrent effect and gives the site manager peace of mind when no one is on site.
Operational Impact
  • The gift shop staff now feel much more confident with the surveillance system watching over them.
  • The site manager can monitor the site from anywhere in the world, even checking if the sod is greening up.
  • The system provides excellent visibility to areas critical for monitoring.
