Closed-circuit TV Cameras-based Surveillance for Gurugram
Around three years after the Gurugram Metropolitan Development Authority (GMDA) mooted a project for a closed-circuit television cameras-based Surveillance and Adaptive Traffic Management System for the Millennium City, its first phase is expected to be completed by March this year with the installation of around 1,200 CCTV cameras. It will have artificial intelligence and features such as traffic signal violation detection, over speeding detection, face recognition and reading of number plates at 200-odd places, including major intersections. Another 800 cameras would be installed during the Phase-II of the project. P.K. Aggarwal, adviser, Smart City, GMDA, told “That the agency proposed to instal around 1,200 cameras by March this year in Gurugram and Manesar falling under its jurisdiction and already 700 cameras were installed covering 160 places. We hope to instal the remaining 500 cameras, covering around 60 places in another three months.” The laying of captive optical fibre for the project began in 2018 and the work of camera installation started last year. “We have a captive optical fibre network of around 400 km. It is our own network. We have not hired it from anyone. It connects all these cameras to the GMDA’s Integrated Command and Control Centre (ICCC), monitored by our Smart City team. It is also used by many other agencies, including the police,” said Aggarwal.
