Qognify, the provider of big data solutions for physical security and operations, announces the successful implementation of its market-leading Safe City solution in Navi Mumbai, a planned township that was established to handle the population overflow from the overcrowded and ever-growing city of Mumbai. Together with CIDCO (City and Industrial Development Corporation, the agency established for managing the new city) and system integrator WIPRO, Qognify has designed an integrated and holistic solution that helps Navi police to maintain law, order and safety.
As a planned township, Navi Mumbai officials have the benefit of operating in a modern environment, allowing to maximize Qognify’s Safe City solution. At the core of the solution are Qognify Situator, an advanced Situation Management platform, and Qognify’s Video Management Solution, which controls the hundreds of surveillance cameras throughout the city.
Safe City Solution Functions
With the solution’s implementation, the city has gained the ability to improve traffic management, deter criminal activity, effectively manage response to events, and resolve investigations efficiently:
- A central command center is using the platform to monitor entry and exit points of the city, toll points, traffic junctions, accident prone road sections, subway and railway stations, schools, key residential areas, open markets, and key utility infrastructure areas such as electrical substations and the main water supply lines.
- Special “Emergency Communication Boxes” act as “panic buttons” and allow people to generate alerts and communicate directly to the control room in case of emergency.
- Qognify’s video management solution provides high quality video feeds. Smart integration with Agent Vi’s video analytics solutions enables immediate detection and extraction of security and safety incidents from surveillance cameras throughout the city. This integration enables the triggering of real-time, automatic alerts of incidents in Qognify Situator, that in turn, generates the appropriate operating procedure and response plan for the operators to act upon.
"The Navi Mumbai security program goes far beyond a CCTV system"
- Situator provides a unified, operational view of the city by integrating all the components of the solution, while providing advanced collaboration capabilities for field personnel who are able to send real time images as well as videos to the control room with the type of the incident at hand and the GIS coordinates of the field respondent.
Navi Mumbai Security Program
“The Navi Mumbai security program goes far beyond a CCTV system,” said Mr. Soma Vijayakumar, CIDCO. “It is a smart solution that integrates video, emergency response, traffic control, license plate identification and more. Qognify is the core important element of this platform, providing a solution which is among the most modern and advanced available anywhere.”
“Navi Mumbai has embarked on a remarkable program which will enhance the safety and security of its citizen, visitors and assets,” said Moti Shabtai, Qognify’s President. “We’re proud to be a part of this multi-solution, multi-agency project that fulfills the vision of the city authorities to provide a security and safety to its constituents.”
Qognify will be featuring its security and operations solutions in booth 9101 at ISC West, April 5-7 in Las Vegas.
