Gustavo A. Madero Opens AI-Enabled Intelligence Center Tied to Mexico City’s C5

Officials say the new municipal hub links with the city network to speed emergency response across the borough.

Overview

  • The center will oversee more than 4,500 cameras in Gustavo A. Madero using AI for facial detection and real-time counts of people and vehicles.
  • Plans call for 1,500 “violet” totems with 360-degree cameras and an emergency button that connects to the Centro de Atención y Respuesta Inmediata and routes support from Policía Auxiliar Sector 65.
  • The facility operates around the clock with a 12‑meter concave display, a crisis room, and 24 monitoring stations staffed by specialized personnel.
  • Authorities reported a 220 million‑peso investment in infrastructure and surveillance equipment for the rollout.
  • SSC chief Pablo Vázquez, C5 coordinator Salvador Guerrero Chiprés, the city’s top judge Rafael Guerra Álvarez, and local prosecutor Erika Montebello attended, and Vázquez said high‑impact crimes fell 14% in the mayor’s first year.
