Pacific Controls have delivered the ICT service infrastructure for the management and operation of the
world's largest equestrain city.
PCS have delivered the ICT service infrastructure for the management and operation of the World’s largest equestrian City.
Derived from an Arabic word which when translated,
describes a place where people congregate and compete- the Meydan City
project nesting 4kms from the mouth of Dubai creek is founded on simple
grounding principles of partnership, community and sporting excellence.
The developer of the biggest equestrian sporting venue in the world, the
Meydan Group develops this city which is an interconnected cityscape of
four distinct districts where the worlds of business, sports and
elegant living intertwines to enhance, encourage and benefit each other.
This is the third biggest project in Dubai, after the
Burj Dubai and the Metro and the IBMS Monitors and Controls all the
electromechanical devices in the buildings. Concept architecture
For the initial phase of this project, the Intelligent
Building Management System developed by Pacific Controls encompasses the
five star hotels-The Banyan Tree with more than ten fine-dining
restaurants, the 60,000 capacity Grandstand, the Car Park – a covered
parking for 10,000, the Dubai Racing Club and Emirates Racing Authority
offices.
Meydan Business View Dashboard Another highlight of the
project is the web based interface of all the monitoring cameras of the
Access Control System, whereby the user can view online any of the CCTV
Cameras as a pop up. Fire Alarm Systems are also integrated to the IBMS
and the devices are monitored and controlled efficiently where the life
and safety of the occupants is the prime concern.
The IBMS controls all the HVAC devices for these
buildings through an automated control system which could be controlled
centrally through a pre defined schedule or by the user requirements
locally. The control points are integrated to touch panels, thermostats
etc thereby making the controls more users friendly and having more
fidelity.
All of the Building systems are integrated by the Intelligent
Building Management System onto a single platform thereby enabling to
control and monitor all of the facilities through a common Human Machine
Interface (HMI). The common IP backbone coupled with the web services
offered through IBMS enables the Building system to be integrated to the
Web.
Thus stunning landmark buildings, horse racing stands and luxurious
residential accommodation mingle seamlessly at Meydan City resulting in a
community designed to strike the perfect work-life balance where
residents and employees can effortlessly move between both elements of
their lives, using one to augment the other.
The data from all the field devices are collected, parsed and
presented intelligently through the Graphics of IBMS, whereby the
management can view all the required information through a single
interface.
The IBMS controls all the HVAC devices for these buildings through an
automated control system which could be controlled centrally through a
pre defined schedule or by the user requirements locally. The control
points are integrated to touch panels, thermostats etc thereby making
the controls more users friendly and having more fidelity.
