In a Facebook post, DBKL said the cameras are placed at key locations as part of its urban safety and traffic management efforts to enhance public safety and improve overall operations. 
"Equipped with cutting-edge artificial intelligence (AI), the CCTV network provides a robust suite of features to support city management.

"These advanced systems are strategically placed at high-traffic areas, crime hotspots, public parks, popular destinations like the River of Life, and markets across the city," it said.
The system which is managed by the DBKL Command Centre is expected to aid in systematic traffic control, help reduce congestion, and reduce crime.
The AI-powered system can detect traffic violations, illegal advertisements, flood risks, and suspicious activities.
"This is a 24/7 monitoring system where the recordings can go on continuously for up to 45 days, ensuring availability for investigations when needed. Each camera has a 360-degree viewing capability with a range of up to 200 meters, supported by fibre-optic connectivity for high-quality images," it said. 
The technology is expected to help DBKL respond faster to emergencies, such as flooding, by detecting and alerting relevant authorities promptly.
"These cameras are not just about surveillance; they're about creating a city where people feel secure and operations run efficiently," the post said. - NST
