Security of people is central to the list of objectives of any government or a society across the globe. Protection of the people in the society is well encompassed within several realms, which incorporate policing, fire and rescue, crisis management, and sensitization. Lately, Artificial Intelligence (AI) has proved itself to be an effective means in increasing the safety of citizens. Whether with regard to crime forecast or emergency dispatch, AI is steadily becoming the new model that governs various policing systems. In this blog, let’s discuss about the various advantages of AI in public safety and how Jain Software is participating this revolutionary process.
1. Predictive Policing
Predictive policing involves the use of some analytical techniques to prevent acts of criminal activities. Thus, getting the previous crime statistics, posts on social networks, and other information, artificial intelligence can determine where criminal activities might occur. This enables the law enforcement agencies to employ appropriate resources and prevent the occurrence of the crimes.
Benefits:
Crime Reduction: Thus, in crime prediction, police will be able to deploy themselves in areas which are most likely to experience crime hence discouraging the criminals.
Resource Optimization: The public can be protected through planning where its police officers visit and do not just move around in circles, spending a lot of time in the streets.
Improved Community Relations: To a large extent, the precincts stand to gain by extra patrols as the community witnesses a decrease in criminal activities.
2. Enhanced Surveillance
Security cameras are critical in controlling crowds and the general population to prevent criminal activities. Automated security systems have the capability to detect out of the ordinary activity in the video streams, and report it to the appropriate authorities. They are able to pick up faces, leave-behind objects and even analyze behaviors for security threats.
Benefits:
Real-Time Threat Detection: AI can easily recognize and inform security agencies of threats hence acting before they occur.
Reduced Human Error: “Automated video surveillance is effective than human operated one because it minimizes chances of human mistakes when reviewing large quantities of video tapes”.
Cost Efficiency: AI can manage several feeds at a time and hence does not require raw monitoring as much.
3. Emergency Response Optimization
When it comes to such situations as natural disasters, warfare, terrorist diseases, or medical emergencies quick and efficient response is vital. In the following manner, AI is helpful in improving the efficiency of managing emergencies, in that it collects metadata from different sources and comprehensively forecasts the consequences of the event, as well as determine the subsequent measures.
Benefits:
Faster Response Times: The use of AI results in reduction of time spent in developing hypotheses and models as AI has the capability to analyze data and come up with decisions within a short span of time.
Resource Allocation: AI can be used to better distribute resources which will assist in making sure that the right people and equipment are taken to the right places.
Improved Coordination: AI systems can enhance organizational relation whereby there is efficient communication and integration of emergency related units.
4. Disaster Management
Natural disasters are foreseeable and controllable through the support of AI; this makes it a huge contribution to disaster management. Other applications geared towards disasters include using artificial intelligence to predict weather conditions, geology, and other topographical conditions to help predict disasters including the earthquakes, floods, hurricanes.
Benefits:
Early Warning Systems: It helps in early alerting of natural catastrophes; hence, people and individuals have more time to organize their evacuation when called for.
Risk Assessment: AI can analyze the risks of the disasters and therefore assist the authorities draw up an efficient prevention and combating strategy.
Resource Mobilization: It can also help in raising funds and organizing disaster management and relief operations for an organization better.
5. 4 The System of Traffic Management and Accident Prevention
Road traffic is one of the major causes of accidental deaths with involvement of multiple injuries along with fatalities. Application of AI can be of great help to boost up traffic control in terms of understanding the traffic flow, the forecast of traffic jams, and possible areas prone to accidents.
Benefits:
Accident Reduction: It is indeed true that AI can provide the necessary equipment that can help in having a better look at driver behavior as well as traffic conditions in a way that the occurrence of an accident can be predicted as well as avoided.
Optimized Traffic Flow: AI can help in controlling traffic signals, traffic patterns hence decrease traffic and enhance traffic flow.
Emergency Response: AI can immediately identify an accident and immediately call for an ambulance and thus reduce time to avail medical services which may save the lives of the involved parties.
6. Healthcare and Pandemic Management
Now knowing that public health is also a component of public safety. I have realized that the use of AI has been very helpful, particularly in the periods that involve the spread of diseases and other health complications that may leads to epidemic. Thanks to advanced Health informatics, AI can process the information regarding the health of the population, forecast the emergence of epidemics, and participate in the rational distribution of resources in healthcare.
Benefits:
Disease Prediction: Regarding the application to health care, AI can forecast disease occurrences from different data providers for early detection and control.
Resource Allocation: AI may help to direct resources like drugs and other necessities or human resource like doctors and nurses to the most needy regions.
Patient Monitoring: AI can help with keeping track of patient status, identifying if/when a patient may be getting worse and suggesting how to help.
7. Participation of the public and increased consciousness.
AI can also play a major role in community participation and education; offering the citizens with the right information at the right time. Among them we can mention that, for instance, chatbots can handle the public questions, inform about safety measures and spread the necessary announcements.
Benefits:
Informed Citizens: While keeping everyone informed about safety procedures, emergencies, or any other important information it can be used.
Enhanced Communication: The tools of Artificial Intelligence can help to improve the communication between authorities and people.
Increased Trust: Techniques that can be adopted as a way of ensuring effective communication include openness and comprehension or consistent sharing of information to the people within the safety agencies as well as the masses.
