Business Challenge
Limited Real-Time City Monitoring: Traditional city monitoring methods can make it difficult to continuously monitor vehicles, road incidents, accidents, and changing environmental conditions across different locations.
Vehicle Identification Challenges: Identifying vehicles and retrieving relevant vehicle information from captured number plates can be challenging without an automated camera-based system.
Incident Detection: Accidents, vehicle breakdowns, road-related incidents, and other events require timely identification and location-based monitoring.
Environmental Monitoring: Changes in weather conditions, heavy rainfall, and flood situations need to be monitored to support timely awareness and response.
Need for Centralized Monitoring: A centralized platform is required to bring camera-based vehicle information, incident data, location information, and environmental events into a unified monitoring system.
From real-time city data to connected monitoring of vehicles, incidents, and environmental conditions for smarter city operations.
Scope of Work
S2MS developed a smart city monitoring solution focused on real-time vehicle, camera, incident, and environmental monitoring.
Camera Integration: Integrated camera-based monitoring to capture and identify vehicles and relevant incidents.
Vehicle Number Plate Recognition: Enabled number plate capture to identify vehicles and retrieve available vehicle-related information.
Vehicle Monitoring & Tracking: Supported monitoring of detected vehicles and their location-related information.
Accident & Incident Monitoring: Enabled detection and monitoring of accidents, vehicle breakdowns, and other road-related incidents.
Weather & Flood Monitoring: Included monitoring of changing weather conditions and flood-related situations.
Centralized Monitoring: Brought vehicle, incident, camera, and environmental information into a centralized monitoring system.
Smart City & IoT Solution
The solution connects camera-based monitoring, vehicle identification, incident detection, and environmental monitoring into a centralized smart city platform.
The system captures real-time information from cameras and connected data sources, processes the available information, and presents relevant vehicle, incident, location, and environmental details for monitoring.
This approach helps provide a connected view of city activities and supports better awareness of events such as vehicle movements, accidents, road incidents, weather changes, and flood situations.
Automatic Number Plate Recognition (ANPR)
The system uses camera-based Automatic Number Plate Recognition (ANPR) to capture vehicle number plates and identify vehicles in monitored locations.
Number Plate Capture: Cameras capture vehicle number plates from monitored areas.
Vehicle Identification: The captured number plate is processed to identify the corresponding vehicle.
Vehicle Details: The system retrieves the available vehicle information associated with the captured number plate.
Location Information: The system provides information about the location where the vehicle was captured or detected.
Accident & Incident Monitoring
The solution supports monitoring of road-related incidents and events captured through the city's monitoring system.
Accident Detection: Helps identify and monitor accident-related events captured in monitored areas.
Incident Location: Provides information about where an accident or other relevant incident has occurred.
Vehicle Breakdown Monitoring: Supports monitoring of situations where a vehicle has stopped or broken down.
Incident Capture: Camera-based monitoring helps capture relevant events for further observation and response.
Weather & Flood Monitoring
The solution supports monitoring of changing environmental conditions and weather-related events across monitored locations.
Weather Condition Monitoring: Tracks relevant changes in weather conditions that may affect city operations.
Flood Monitoring: Helps identify and monitor flood-related situations in affected areas.
Location-Based Information: Provides information about the location where weather-related or flood events are detected.
Event Monitoring: Captures relevant environmental events to support awareness and monitoring.
Centralized Monitoring Dashboard
The solution provides a centralized monitoring view for managing and reviewing information collected from cameras and connected city data sources.
Vehicle Information: Displays captured vehicle and number plate information.
Incident Monitoring: Provides visibility into accidents, vehicle breakdowns, and other reported incidents.
Location-Based Monitoring: Helps identify where vehicles or incidents have been detected.
Environmental Events: Provides visibility into relevant weather and flood-related situations.
Centralized View: Brings different types of city monitoring information together in one platform for easier observation and management.
Real-Time Alerts & Notifications
The solution provides timely notifications for important vehicle, road, and environmental events detected through the monitoring system.
Vehicle Alerts: Provides notifications based on relevant vehicle or number plate detections.
Accident & Incident Alerts: Notifies relevant users about detected accidents, vehicle breakdowns, or other road incidents.
Weather & Flood Alerts: Provides alerts for significant weather changes or flood-related situations.
Location-Based Alerts: Includes the relevant location information with detected events to support timely monitoring and response.
