Challenges for Federated Crowd Management in Smart Cities

Abstract

This paper addresses the issue of crowd management in smart cities, where effectively handling large groups is essential for ensuring safety and a positive experience for all. Although smart cities strive to use data for better decision-making, simply measuring crowds is not enough; cities must analyze and utilize this data intelligently. In this paper, we leverage the various experiences of two research groups in this area and present a vision that allows cities to easily establish crowd management platforms by transferring knowledge and insights from similar use cases in other cities
