SAFE CITY ARCHITECTURE FOR SMART CITIES IN INDIA

NASSCOM Confidential 1

Why Smart Cities should be Safe Cities?


A Smart City must enhance performance on safety and security for citizens, their activities and investments, and the sustainability of the environment, to thrive as a city.

A ‘Safe’ city is a pre-requisite to create an attractive economic and social environment for the citizens, and to attract the investments for the growth of smart city.

With the integration of Smart citizen centric services with the Safety and Security infrastructure, the city would be able to ensure sustainability and socio-economic growth.

Objectives to be achieved through a safe city architecture for smart cities


Pre-empt and secure smart city against terror strikes and other

extraordinary threats from extremist/radical elements

Provide efficient Incident Response to emergency situations (terror

incidents, fire, medical, crime, accidents of all types, etc.; this is distinct

from disaster management, which is a separate requirement)

Traffic Management and Road Accidents Management (Road

Accidents are the single largest cause of non-natural deaths)

Re-enforce Crime Prevention and Investigation capabilities of Policing

Agencies for ensuring security for communities and commerce (including

vulnerable communities such as children, elders, women, minorities, etc.)

Protection of Critical Infrastructure (including cyber-

attacks) (transport systems, utilities, government and public installations)

Social Unrest management and Law & Order management

Safety and security of (large scale) Public Events and Special Events

ARCHITECTURE - Citizen Centric Services


Safe Cities as well as Smart Cities have specialist components of

infrastructure whose availability create the potential for

architecting higher level services and capacities for enhancing

security and safety

Providing the Rationale for Collaboration

The Accountability layer holds stakeholders responsible for the provision and implementation of services. This layer of Accountability, thus, provides Stakeholders with a rationale for collaborating.

Stakeholder Collaboration across the Safe City Infrastructure and the Smart City Infrastructure is the key to enhancing security and safety

SPECIFIC SOLUTIONS - Early Stage Smart Cities



Policing Services – Vulnerable Sections of Society

Citizen centric services for the safety of vulnerable sections of society include:

Women Children Senior Citizens

People with disabilities OR

health problems

Marginalized Communities

Identification and protection of the most vulnerable in the society to ensure that they are allowed to live free from abuse and neglect.

Community specific volunteer networks – AA, Women’s Groups

GPS Tracking using Mobile Phones, PDAs, Electronic Tags; linked to an alert system

Integrated Incident Response across Police, Fire, Health services

Community specific Mobile Apps for incident reporting

Panic Buttons in Public places


It is a philosophy that promotes organizational strategies that encourage the use of partnerships and collaborative problem solving methodology between police and local communities to address pro-actively the immediate conditions giving rise to issues of public safety and security such as crime, social disorder, and conditions that lead to criminal or high-risk behaviour amongst sub-groups of vulnerable communities.

Community Policing

Increased interactions with and participation of the community

in Policing and Crime intervention processes

Non-intrusive collaborations of law enforcement agencies in

crime prone areas/community groups or for the protection of vulnerable, marginalized and

minority communities.

It involves two aspects –

RWAs Police

Social Media based Interactions

Security of Public Places and Events Citizens of a city are often most vulnerable when in crowds at Public Places like markets, metro stations or Special Events like political rallies or concerts. Security at such places needs to be of a certain standard to ensure the complete safety of citizens. The components that are critical for this are:

Identification of risk hotspots

across the city

Crowd control infrastructure

Automatic alert systems

Emergency specific

evacuation plans for the public

Integrated Response across

teams

Centralized action plans in case of threats


networks at public places and events

Uniform & Mandatory Security Standards and Protocols for Public Facilities and Buildings


Consolidated understanding of incident response

Resources Readiness

Coordinated information sharing

approach in the context of Multi-Agency Handling

Integrated all round view of an emergency

situation

Coordination between Emergency Response Services – Fire, Police,

Health Services – in situation handling

Integrated platform for dissemination of

critical information to the public

Utilization of information and

intelligence for Rapid and Informed incident

responsiveness

Leveraging the Citizen layer in times of Emergency and

Disaster situations to maximize spread of management efforts

Next Steps

MoUD needs to set minimum security standards for public places like: malls, airports, metro stations, market places etc.

Business cycle evaluation for Safety and Security – incorporating PPP

Key Performance Indicators to be framed for each service component

Address Legal and Policy challenges to Information Sharing and Multi-agency Coordination
