Police in Da Lat City, a tourist hotspot in Vietnam’s Central Highlands province of Lam Dong, have put a smart camera system for traffic surveillance into operation in the downtown area.
The system consists of 35 high-quality cameras placed across major routes, intersections, and traffic lights in the city’s urban area.
In addition, a number of surveillance cameras belonging to the provincial police department are also integrated into the system.

Images from the system will be sent to a server at the headquarters of the city’s police department, where officers can monitor traffic in real time via a board of screens.
By utilizing images collected by the cameras, AI-powered automatic warnings will assist authorities in identifying and promptly addressing urban traffic incidents, such as congestion, and other social order issues.

The camera network can keep track of other lawbreaking behaviors, such as lane crossing, wrong-way driving, as well as traffic light non-adherence, and can monitor vehicles in the blacklist.
In the coming time, the city’s police department will further incorporate additional detection capabilities, such as identifying speeding, improper stopping and parking, and vehicles accessing restricted areas.
The cost of the system was not disclosed.
