It serves over 60,000 private and public organizations, as well as individual customers, helping them achieve remarkable results in efficiency, while also reducing costs and time.Â
Challenges
Unable to Analyze Video Data
The client’s existing system was limited in its ability to integrate video feeds from multiple cameras into a cohesive, scalable solution for the customer
Delays in Data Processing
The client’s technical infrastructure lacked the capability to handle high data volumes and varied camera feeds efficiently. These delays led to missed opportunities for resolving security concerns during peak hours or emergency situations.
Solution
Data Pilot developed a comprehensive computer vision-based platform hosted on Google Cloud Platform (GCP). This platform was designed to process live video feeds so that stakeholders can monitor traffic patterns and occupancy levels without any delays, ensuring immediate response to potential issues.
- Google Cloud Platform (GCP)
- Computer Vision Model
Google Cloud was used to provide the infrastructure for the solution for scalable, reliable processing of video feeds from multiple locations. It also enabled the solution to be scaled to accommodate new features without compromising performance.
A computer vision model was built ot enable accurate detection and analysis of footfall, gender, and age, crucial for delivering actionable
Solution that allowed users to extract Key Performance Indicators
Real-time Dashboard
Displayed live KPIs with customizable reporting, allowing the client to monitor and respond to traffic patterns and crowd behavior instantly. The dashboard enabled users to build custom reports and access real-time footage from any camera installed in their targeted regions.
The Impact
Future-proof scalability
We built the platform with scalability in mind, ensuring that it could accommodate future growth, additional features, and increased data volumes without compromising performance.
Real-time analysis
The platform’s ability to analyze and display demographic data (such as gender and age) in real-time allowed the client to make more informed decisions, particularly in scenarios requiring precise crowd management.
40% improvement in response times
The reduction in processing delays led to smoother operations, with the client reporting a 40% improvement in response times to public safety incidents and a 30% increase in overall operational efficiency.
Real-time display of KPIs
The dashboard was able to give updates with real-time KPIs without any delays. The KPIs displayed on the dashboard included:
- Total footfall at a given area
- Number of males passing a given area
- Number of females passing a given area
- Time spent by males in each area
- Time spent by females in each area
- Age of the person (male or female)
