For building security visualization, including real-time alarm notifications and 3D/2D mapping, I recommend exploring the following GUI software stacks:

1️⃣ Milestone Systems XProtect

    • It offers seamless integration with 2D/3D building maps for real-time alarm management.

    • Highly customizable and integrates well with third-party devices.

2️⃣ Genetec Security Center

    • A unified platform for managing building security with interactive maps and alarm tracking.

    • It supports both 2D and 3D visualization and provides robust real-time notifications.

3️⃣ Johnson Controls C•CURE 9000

    • This is another powerful solution that integrates access control and video surveillance with visual mapping features.

4️⃣ Qognify VisionHub

    • Excellent for 3D/2D visualization, incident management, and real-time alarm notifications.

5️⃣ Unity or Unreal Engine (Custom Solutions)

    • If a more tailored approach is needed, creating a solution with Unity or Unreal Engine provides flexibility to design highly interactive and immersive 3D environments.

When selecting a stack, consider:

🔹 Scalability to accommodate future needs.

🔹 Integration capabilities with existing security systems.

🔹 User-friendliness for operators.
