People density prediction

Risk management in high-density urban areas.

Your job is to protect the public. We use mobility data to identify large gatherings of people in small geographic areas, allowing you to create data-driven safety measures.

For civil protection, events and drone operators

Using mobile phone data and other parameters, we calculate the number of people to be expected in a particular place at a particular time. This makes it possible to prepare security measures and plan operations and events in advance. Drone operators use the information to perform drone flight risk analyses.

A beta version of Swisscom Broadcast’s People Density Prediction Service is now available.
