Attain Safer, Smarter Cities and Spaces Through Integrated Intelligence

Today’s cities are growing fast. Our total urban population is expected to climb from 3.6 billion in 2014 to 6 billion by 2045.Along with this growth comes  increased expectations and pressure on organizations tasked with protecting public safety of citizens from crime, terrorism, interpersonal violence and destruction or theft of property.

Advances in technology now deliver advanced tools and large volumes of data to public safety officials to help them meet these increasing demands. These tools, including video cameras, gunshot detectors, license plate recognition systems, and other internet of things (IoT) devices help prevent incidents. However, for most public safety organizations, this flood of information from disparate systems is difficult to effectively manage or gain insights from.

To make public safety more responsive, predictive and automated, urban centers need an end-to-end intelligence solution: they require a solution that leverages innovative IoT-enabled analytics to deliver real-time insights that support faster responses to events and predictive safety measures.

Gain Greater Visibility With Connected City Intelligence

Metropolitan centers and the organizations within them are increasingly using intelligent technology to connect public and private stakeholders to make cities smarter, safer and more sustainable.
By utilizing big data integration and reporting and integrating video feeds, event data and other sources like social media, Hitachi Digital Services Smart Spaces and Video Intelligence provides real-time information that public safety can act on.

Hitachi Smart Spaces and Video Intelligence combines IoT devices from Hitachi and third parties, both on-premises and cloud platforms, and applications and analytics solutions that deliver instantaneous information and insights.

Hitachi Digital Services Delivers a Comprehensive, End-to-End IoT Solution Designed To Provide Intelligence for the Safe City

Hitachi Smart Spaces and Video Intelligence provides public safety officials and security personnel with an integrated view of activities within a city as well as the intelligence they need to make faster, more informed decisions. Police gain a map-based, single-pane perspective that combines real-time video from public and private cameras, computer-aided dispatch (CAD), calls, gunshot detectors, license plate and face recognition, social media and smart devices.

To further enhance public safety, the solution includes Hitachi Video Analytics, with policy driven, automated alerts that are triggered when suspicious activities, objects, people or vehicles are detected. Smart Spaces and Video Intelligence drives smarter, more efficient public safety operations with analytics, cataloged video and pictures, event statistics and custom reports.

Build Safer, Smarter Communities Through Full Situational Awareness
