Abstract Ensuring safety and security of citizens in smart cities is one of the key challenges for governments, mayors and policy makers. "Safe City" is an open and reliable solution that provides a variety of integrated operational services for a highly complex operational chain and effective deployment, not only at an individual level of a municipality, but also integration into a single, federal structure. "Safe City" offers, with its single set of information-management tools, a multi-dimensional coverage for complex and multi-functional operational tasks, a diversity of integrated systems (video surveillance and video analytics, chemical control, emergency communications, public address and general alarm, media, etc.) and support for a sustainable expansion of the present and future services (e.g., eCall, connection of public objects, telephone notification). The presented solution builds a comprehensive and intelligent view of what happens in the smart city by unifying and integrating various events and contextual information from heterogeneous information systems into a single information space, by visualizing such information and opening communications with other systems. The decision-support subsystem makes it possible, in its automatic mode, to estimate the parameters of the system as a whole and respond efficiently to changes in the operational environment. "Safe City" is a future-oriented solution that is prepared for further adaptations according to the market and regulatory needs.
