From drone image to situation picture
Bley IT took on the entire software development and the entire AI development and co-advised the project. It was carried out in cooperation with Prof. Dr. Ralf Otte, professor of industrial automation and artificial intelligence at Technische Hochschule Ulm, and the Weinheim IT company L&I IT-solutions.
During operation the application brought image analysis, situation map, incident reports and forecast together in one interface:
- Upload drone images in batches; waypoint and capture time are assigned from the metadata
- Count people on thermal and colour images, without identity or face recognition
- Density per walkable area and a risk level that responders can raise or lower with a reason
- Blur faces on drone and ground photos automatically
- Shared situation map, incident reports and live ticker for fire brigade, Red Cross and police
- Hourly incident forecast from the data of earlier Kerwe years
- In-app notification as soon as a flight evaluation is complete or shows something unusual
