The document discusses how smart cities and the Internet of Things can impact public safety. It outlines some of the challenges like security, connectivity, and citizen confidence. It describes how connected safety forces of the future may be automatic, intelligent, unified, and collaborative. The Atos Urban Data Platform integrates data from sensors to provide aggregated views and support decision making. Examples from Marseille and Nice show how technologies like mobile apps, data collection, and AI can help police react faster and anticipate risky situations to make cities safer. Key recommendations include starting with a realistic vision, providing new technologies to fight crime, building a secure and scalable network infrastructure, and measuring performance.

How does it integrate in the technical platform?
Atos Urban Data Platform (AUDP)
▶ Atos Urban Data Platform (AUDP)
is the open, interoperable and
standard solution for Smart Cities
▶ It integrates and collects information
from all types of sensors and other
data sources. It normalizes that data
and processes it to provide
aggregated and intelligent views of
row data to support decision making
in day-to-day work.
▶ AUDP is connected with all
Smart/Safe City vertical solutions

Example: connected safety
What if “smarter” meant “safer”?
Safe City
Combining sound, image & movement can trigger alerts on
possible incidents, allowing an educated response.

City of Marseille & City of Nice
Efficient group communication
Mobile apps for digital police officers, built
on secured ‘off-the-shelf’ phones
Collecting and processing data from a range
of existing sources and sensors combined
with social media
Create a powerful picture of the city / street
and help police officers to better react to
situations / take the right decisions
Anticipate risky or conflict situations
Make cities, events and crowded areas safer
and more enjoyable
