In a groundbreaking development, Ahmedabad has emerged as the first city in India to employ artificial intelligence (AI) for comprehensive monitoring by the municipal corporation and police across the entire city.

The city's expansive Paldi area is now home to a state-of-the-art artificial intelligence- enabled command and control centre, featuring a remarkable 9 by 3-metre screen that oversees an extensive 460 square kilometres, encompassing Ahmedabad and its surroundings.

This Al-surveillance system incorporates live drone footage, camera feeds from traffic signals and buses, offering a six- camera view that surveys the entire city.

According to the CNBC Awaaz, the system's capabilities extend beyond tracking traffic violations or unidentified activities; it has the ability to monitor and address various issues. Whether it's locating missing persons, or identifying suspicious activities, this Al-driven system is set to become a boon for both the municipal corporation and the police.
