VIRTUAL ISLAND OF PENANG

The MBPP Virtual Island of Penang (ViP) initiative empowers collaborative decision- making that provides new levels of situational intelligence, visualization, and complete incident management capabilities. It allows planners, enforcers, traffic officers, and other relevant city personnel to make the right decision when faced with routine tasks or unanticipated situations by ensuring a timely flow of information. A geo-enabled VIP moves beyond simple event and alert management by collecting and qualifying data from multiple data sources from CCTV, MBPP Core Business Systems, sensors and other supporting information externally, spotting the most complex situations and incidents, and guiding MBPP’s team in their response following MBPP- specific processes and compliance requirements.
