Observation Van Revisited
In this follow-up to one of our most popular episodes on Observation Vans (Episode 2 of Titan PI TV), host Simon Henson revisits the topic to clarify a few key points and address some constructive feedback we received from Col. (R) Doru Geru, Chairman of W.O.S.C.P. (World Organization Surveillance and Close Protection Professionals). While Col. Geru offered some valuable insights, his criticisms stemmed from the perspective of Government Surveillance techniques—an approach that significantly differs from the methods used by Titan Private Investigation Ltd and the UK private investigation industry as a whole.
What You’ll Learn in This Episode
- Private vs. Government Surveillance
We’ll outline the fundamental differences between government-led surveillance methods and those typically employed by private investigators. While government agencies operate with different levels of authority, resources, and legal frameworks, private investigators must navigate stricter limitations to maintain client confidentiality, adhere to local regulations, and respect privacy boundaries. - Tailored Observation Techniques for the Private Sector
Our original episode focused on surveillance tactics that private investigators commonly use to remain discreet in urban and rural settings. In this revisited video, we’ll explain why our approach to observation vans includes subtle but effective modifications that are distinct from those used in government operations. This includes specific setups, equipment choices, and vehicle positioning tailored to private sector needs. - Addressing Col. Geru’s Feedback
Col. Geru’s insights brought up some interesting points about observation methods and security protocols. While we appreciate his expertise, it’s important to contextualise his comments within the scope of private investigation. We’ll discuss which of his points are applicable to our work and clarify areas where our approaches differ due to industry standards and legal requirements. - Refining Observation Techniques for Private Investigators
For those in the private investigation field, this episode offers a refined look at the practicalities of using observation vans for long-duration surveillance without drawing attention.
