People density prediction
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.
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.
The algorithm combines Swisscom mobile data with weather forecasts
