35 vehicles equipped with on-board cameras

The concept ? Equip 35 vehicles from the city of Ajaccio and the CAPA, whether they are transport, service or even police vehicles with on-board cameras in order to collect as much data as possible on road heritage and street furniture. The condition of the signs, the roadway, traffic lights or even pedestrian crossings will then be analyzed. ” This is not video surveillance Reassures Marie-Antoinette Santoni-Brunelli. « The idea is to anticipate citizens’ requests Explains Pascal Peraldi, head of the geographical information service of CAPA. «Pfor us, it is a way of being upstream of the problem that is likely to arise and of better managing to act before the user expresses difficulties Adds Jacques Billard, Deputy Mayor of Ajaccio in charge of traffic and parking, public transport, local works and municipal buildings.

Decision support tool and everyday tool

A device that has other virtues: ” We have a lot of vehicles that circulate on a daily basis, and road colleagues will be able to benefit from the data received thanks to these trips. It is also an ecological desire.e »indicates Pascal Peraldi. « Mobileye is transversal because it is also an indicator of road traffic, which could also allow us to find solutions in terms of mobility. Adds Marie-Antoinette Santoni-Brunelli. « It is both a decision-making and investment support tool and a daily tool for managing difficulties Summarizes Carlu Dominici, who will officially take over in a few days his position as Director General of Services of the City of Ajaccio. « This tool will not make us perfect but will help us to be better »Concludes the Vice-President in charge of economic and digital development.

40,000 euros invested by CAPA

And the best has a cost, since the experimentation of this technology, developed by an Israeli company acquired by the Intel group, required an investment of 40,000 euros. ” When we bring it down to the cost of the surveys carried out by our technical staff, we arrive at 60,000 euros. In view of these financial elements, the investment is justified ”Argues the vice-president in charge of economic and digital development. One more string to the CAPA digital bow, while waiting to find the magic wand: ” We have not yet found the tool to reduce incivility Jokes Marie-Antoinette Santoni-Brunelli.
