Smart Cities Mission - Report on Safety, Environment,and Emergency Response

Message from the Chairman

Every year, natural and human-induced disasters result in infrastructure damage, monetary loss, setback to businesses, emotional distress, injuries and deaths. In this context, Internet-of-Things (IoT) based disaster detection and response systems can help cope with such calamities and emergencies by improving the disaster detection mechanism, and search and rescue missions during disaster response.

IoT devices are frequently used to collect data, help to identify hazards after disasters, localise injured people, prioritse their treatment, etc. In a smart city, data acquisition is key to providing amenities and also guide planners to the requirements of a pocket or an area. For example, surveillance cameras in busy places can help detect peak hours when maximum attention is required. Therefore, in case of a disaster or an emergency, city planners can easily measure the extent of damage and, accordingly, response teams can be despatched to swiftly address the situation and perform rescue. Similarly, smart traffic management through a centralised control centre will ensure smooth movement of traffic to help with the operations.

However, a solely IoT-based detection and response system may not be totally suitable for emergency response in smart cities, as lack of connectivity with IoT devices might occur due to breakages in communication infrastructure, or even lead to network congestion. To address these issues, what is needed is a set of decisions: (i) Smart sensing for data acquisition supported by processing of the knowledge acquired, (ii) Smart response comprising of wireless ad hoc networking of everything for data exchange among entities in the proposed smart system, and (iii) Maintaining privacy to ensure a reliable and secure system, which will ensure data integrity.

India-based international market research and consulting firm, Infoholic Research has prepared a comprehensive research paper on safety and disaster preparedness, exclusively for the 5th Smart Cities India expo. Titled “Smart Cities in India – Safety, Emergency Response and Disaster Preparedness”, the document explores the potential of such devices and solutions in reference to Indian market conditions, and the successful application in smart cities. It compares the market trends in the country with the international markets to identify which technologies are best suited for the Indian market through an inclusive analysis of topics such as market segmentation and dynamics, key drivers, constraints and opportunities, as well as impact analysis.

FOREWORD

Globally, rapid urbanization will continue to remain a megatrend fostering the growth of economic, social and technological developments. As governments focus on creating sustainable economic growth, resilience of urban areas and the necessary transformation enablers are witnessing enormous growth aiding the creation of smart cities across countries. Considering the Indian scenario with nearly 4200 cities, the subcontinent is exceptional with pockets of economic growth spurting and overburdening the underlying infrastructure inhibiting future socio-economic progress. City authorities, government agencies are faced with two-pronged challenge in addressing the needs of growing population including

1. Provision of amenities such as housing, utilities, transportation, safety & security

2. Promote cultural and business-centric growth unique to these cities to further economic development

In 2015, the Government of India and Ministry of Housing and Urban Affairs (MoHUA) collaborated to outline the mission statement and relevant guidelines to resolve these challenges resulting in the launch Smart Cities Mission (SCM). The programme is aimed at rejuvenating 100 cities with a focus on improving the existing support structures from an infrastructure, governance, economic and social perspective. The strategic components of SCM initiative include area-based development (ABD) with city improvement (retrofitting), city renewal (re-development) and city extension (Greenfield development) as well as Pan-city development in which smart solutions are applied covering larger parts of the city.

Spanning over a duration of 5 years (FY 2015 to FY 2020) and a budget of 2.05 Lakh Crores with four rounds, the Smart Cities Mission witnessed significant growth in FY 2018-FY 2019 with many projects completed or grounded and several projects in progress. With smart being the key component of the mission, solutions and services that improve the current state of these cities remain the key focus areas of investment. Technologies that address the present challenges and provide the relevant scalability are being considered for several projects.

Aside of the much hyped 5G that can deliver efficiencies to IoT deployments, emergency situations need to take into account the possibilities of network disruptions, especially if they rely on existing technologies. Authorities and technology providers would need to explore possibilites of emerging solutions including broadcast technologies (ATSC 3.0) that can complement and secure IoT deployments.

Currently, majority of the proposed budget is being utilized on developing the necessary infrastructure by building and retrofitting the urban landscape with construction of roadways, streets, and redesign of land/waterways, to enhance urban transport, area development, and economic development. The proposed budget also provisions investment for smart solutions including smart metering for water & utilities, automatic fare collection, smart mobility, smart solid waste management, integrated traffic management systems, smart street lighting, smart farming, smart signalling and solar installations to name a few.

2.5 Disaster Preparedness and Emergency Response

An ambitious project such as Smart Cities Mission requires a robust disaster management and disaster preparedness team and plan to combat natural disasters and man-made destructions. Due to the Indian government’s initiatives and the increased efforts to secure the urban areas, Disaster preparedness in smart cities has gained lot of traction. Storm drain systems, Disaster management center and incident management are the areas that are focused in this segment. Flooding has been a major issue in cities for some time now. Due to rapid urbanization and population density, cities have grown to extents that are not planned for immaculately for drain systems. Storms causing disaster such as the Cyclone Fani and Cyclone Hud-Hud in recent times is well known.

Disaster management Incident management through accuracy of early warnings, relief infrastructure, clear communication plan, and effective coordination of groups are vital for Disaster preparedness.

Globally Buenos Aires, for e.g. the city that is prone to severe flooding optimized their IT infrastructure with major SAP’s mobile platforms and process integration technology. This infrastructure was used to enable radar sensors in drains to monitor floods. As a result, the city has been able to maintain clear drains even if it suffers heavy rainfall and has thus stayed flood-free since then. Similarly, Orissa government has allotted INR 428.1 crores for augmenting storm water and sewerage network in Rourkela. Bhubaneswar Smart City Limited (BSCL) provides information to residents and tourists on amenities available in the city through GIS map portal. This initiative bagged the ‘Geospatial Application Excellence Award’ for successfully using IT application for disseminating information.

ADB has been assisting Kochi Municipal Corporation to make it a smart and resilient city by modernizing financial, administrative, and asset management systems; reducing urban flood risks; improving land use planning; and developing their capacity to reach citizens through introduction of a flood forecasting and early warning system (FFEWS) Tamil Nadu government has allotted INR 109.8 crores in Coimbatore for designing Foot paths and Storm drains. Kerala Government announced projects worth INR 148.4 Crores for area mapping, launching a red alert mobile app forming disaster management force, swimming training programmes, and preparing a bio-diversity register.

Cities are increasingly exposed to threats that are connected with industry, crime, proximity with natural risks such as wildfires, earthquakes, flooding, and severe weather calamities.

Smart Cities 2019

• Growing urbanization: Smart cities are expected to deliver multi-fold benefits with enhanced access to safety, security, employment, healthcare and education. With more than 4,000 cities and towns in India, the opportunity to deliver seamless citizen services will continue to drive the growth for smart solutions.

• Lack of infrastructure: The underlying infrastructure for smart cities must be robust and scalable, hence the huge allocation of budgets for area development with greenfield and retrofitting of existing urban landscape to withstand the stress of increasing population.

• Tech-savvy citizens: With millennials preferring mobility, digital access and online services, the components of smart cities need to include these delivery models for dissemination of citizen services. Online payments, app-based support, city portals and smart kiosks will gain traction as cities progress with their projects.

• Conversational platforms: Chatbots, voicebots and conversational platforms will witness growth especially for citizen queries, grievance addressal, emergency response, payment of utilities and tax as well as ease access to online services for senior citizens.

• Next-gen technologies: Smart city authorities and system integrators need to have foresight to accommodate for provisioning of services with next-gen technologies. Artificial Intelligence, 5G, Blockchain, Digital Twin and other transformational technologies should be considered to allow for better scalability and faster delivery of services.

• Big data and analytics: Given the large volume of data being generated at the command and control centre, smart cities would require robust analytics solutions to provide better services. With the underlying infrastructure closer to completion, many cities will look for vendors with specific capabilities to analyse data for facial recognition, traffic patterns, GIS mapping, route optimization, and emergency response services.

• Safety and security solutions: With crime rates increasing on physical and cyber fronts, the demand for robust security solutions will gain traction. The use of AI based security solutions to analyse and mitigate threats will witness tremendous growth.

• Environmental monitoring: Industrialization and increase in population density will result in higher pollution levels in cities. Systems that can provide analysis and foresight into remediation of these environment hazards will be implemented to sustain social and economic development.
