NICE Safe City Solutions Deployed in Glasgow to Bolster Security, Safety, and Operations Management
Scotland's largest city is using NICE's advanced PSIM and video management solutions for daily operations and major events
RA'ANANA, Israel, June 11, 2014 /PRNewswire/ --
NICE Systems (NASDAQ: NICE) today announced that the city of Glasgow is deploying its
security solutions to enhance the community's safety and security infrastructure. The
implementation, which includes NICE Situator
[http://www.nice.com/situation-management/nice-situator#pr_11.6.14 ] and NiceVision
[http://www.nice.com/video/nicevision-net ] for video management, will help the city
strengthen its daily operations and streamline incident response.
Glasgow was recently awarded funding from the Technology Strategy Board (TSB) Future
Cities Demonstrator competition to show what can be achieved by innovative use of today's
technology.
The city is using NICE Situator, an advanced Physical Security Information Management
(PSIM) system, to consolidate data from various city-wide services like Public Space CCTV
and traffic control within a single operations center. This information is filtered into
pre-defined response plans to help operators better manage situations in real time. It
also provides improved visibility and control of different sensors and better
collaboration across relevant security and safety departments.
This initiative fuses Community Safety Glasgow's (CSG) CCTV operation with Traffcom,
the Glasgow City Council team which monitors the city's road networks, traffic lights, and
traffic cameras. By pooling these resources, CSG and Traffcom now have joint access to the
city's entire network of live and recorded CCTV footage.
As part of the GBP24m Future Cities Glasgow program, the city will also install an
advanced digital camera network to be integrated with Situator. Any unusual activity that
is detected over the cameras will trigger an alarm in the command center, prompting
further investigation by emergency services.
Phil Walker, Managing Director of Community Safety Glasgow
"The NICE solutions will enable us to address safety and security requirements, and
beyond that the solutions can be further scaled in the coming months and years to help us
improve city services and crime prevention. We have also been impressed with NICE's
ability to help us deploy the solution in a short amount of time."
Chris Wooten, Executive Vice President, NICE Security Group
"This deployment reinforces our expertise in helping cities around the world manage
day-to-day life, as well as large-scale events, from both a security and operational
perspective. We are very pleased to be a key player in safeguarding the city's facilities
as well as the huge influx of visitors that are expected this summer, and look forward to
a continued partnership with the city of Glasgow. Glasgow is the first city in the UK to
earn a 'Safe City' status, fully utilizing the capabilities that NICE Situator can
provide."
