RE:San Francisco - Plan/Budget for Video Systems Improvements Wondering if there's a way to learn what companies the Technology team is testing?
I'm sure the SMFTA wouldn't reveal it to Joe Public.
A Proof of Concept is currently being implemented by Technology team to test out the hardware. The POC is planned to be completed by June 2020.

There's clearly a trend toward improving video systems everywhere as the video is useful for assisting management with decisions, protecting against lawsuits, improving operations, etc. This is just one example of the cities which are looking to improve their video systems.
San Fransisco Municipal Transportation Agency (SMFTA) - Section from Communications & IT Capital Project Scopes:
Upgrade aging SFMTA video analytic systems to monitor video footage more intelligently. Implement video analytic system on the new video surveillance platform that allows real time video monitoring and automatic intrusion detection that alerts the TMC when anomalies were identified. The video analytics system can be expanded beyond security and safety monitoring of track and tunnel intrusion, to include platform crowding, etc.
Install Bus mounted video cameras in SFMTA buses to capture parking violations in dedicated bus lanes to reduce Transit Only Lane (TOL) violations. A Proof of Concept is currently being implemented by Technology team to test out the hardware. The POC is planned to be completed by June 2020.
Implement video-based safety program to provide safety records through monitoring operator performance. This technology will record operator experiences behind the wheel throughout the day.
