New Year’s Eve Surveillance

Vienna 2018-19 New Year’s Eve Celebrations Surveillance

Since 1990, the Vienna New Year’s Eve Trail draws hundreds of thousands of people to celebrate the New Year. In 2019, the event was held between 6p.m and 11 p.m, where thousands of people gathered in the city center.
The city authorities needed a solution that would allow them to monitor the large crowds, secure up to 14 different places, and prevent risks, and this for 12 hours.
