Building urban security for citizens andthe cities

>

The most modern and integrated securecity system in the world.

Thales uses the most modern technologyavailable to provide video-surveillance, analyse images and other information, process emergency calls, manage eventsand simulate emergency situations. The system processes information from8,080 video cameras and sensors locatedacross the city and transmits alarms to theappropriate operators when any unusualevents or behaviours are detected.In a major emergency situation, police candeploy specially equipped mobile commandcentres that maintain contact with the central command control communicationsand intelligence centre (C4I).

Sharing, exchanging and converging multi-sourcedata (voice, data and video)

Enabling interoperability between multi-operator communication

and security networks • sharing communication infrastructure

• Exchanging databases to facilitate the search for evidence

• Pooling 24/7 operators and control centres

Collecting and converging information • Detecting and confirming events or incidents

• Clarifying the nature of threatening objects

• Appropriately adapting resources to resolve issues

The result is continuity of public services every dayand in times of crisis.

This implies:

• Guaranteeing emergency calls.

• Ensuring incident resolution and the supply of

emergency resources.

• Optimising and protecting the flows of people

and goods.

• Regaining control over inner city areas to

restore law and order and ensure citizen

well-being.

Communicating with remote forces using seamless systems

Identifying and coordinating all available resources

• Locate all multi-agency security forces

• Allocate resources according to the nature of the incident

• Follow up missions until they are effectively resolved

Exchanging relevant information

• Define the purpose of the mission

• Provide access to remote databases

• Forward real-time updates to tactical action plans

Providing real-time information for public authorities using seamless information & communication systems

Providing information for more efficient management

• Manage special events and high-risk situations

• Anticipate urban traffic congestion

Providing timely alerts to enhance crisis management

• Guarantee interfaces among the different networks of players

involved

• Issue instructions and recommendations to the general public

Thales offers an effective response to the dual challenge facing city authorities and public operators in the 21st century:

provide security and peace of mind for citizens while protecting and developing public property.

Today, half of the population is leaving in urban areas. Over 70% of the world population will live in cities by 2050. The world population is projected to reach 7 billion early in 2012, up from the current 6.8 billion, and surpass 9 billion people by 2050.

Most of the additional 2.3 billion people will enlarge the population of developing countries, which is projected to rise from 5.6 billion in 2009 to 7.9 billion in 2050.

Across the globe, developing countries and mature economies alike are seeing spiralling urban growth as people move massively from the country to the city,leading to the emergence of megacities and so-called 'digital cities'. The popula-tion of developing countries is projected to rise from 5.6 billion in 2009 to 7.9 billion in 2050. These changes have put citizen well-being at the heart ofurban development projects.

With an ever-changing flow of people and complex urban issues that need to betackled, megacities are one of the biggest challenges of the 21st century. Carefulplanning is crucial to achieving a harmonious balance.

Putting together an urban security project is rendered even more complex by theneed to meet public spending targets and by cumbersome decision-making processes stemming from the involvement of numerous different entities such aslocal authorities, public security forces and private operators.

No two cities are the same and security issues cannot be addressed withouttaking into account individual requirements, in other words each city's political,economic, social and regulatory framework.

Thales has been helping ensure the security of people in

megacities around the globe for over 15 years. As a

major critical systems integrator, Thales draws on this

experience to put together intelligent and integrated

security solutions that tackle the full spectrum of

today's urban issues. The fundamental aim is to meet

public protection and government service requirements

that allow citizens to live better together.

Thales's innovative approach goes beyond simply

installing control and surveillance equipment. Instead,

we offer a comprehensive urban security concept

covering a broad range of threats (including the most

critical ones such as industrial and natural disasters,

riots, terrorist attacks, etc.)

This concept is anchored in a change management

policy aimed at optimising resource organisation and

management, implementing an open architecture and

integrating innovative solutions.
