The Al Omrane group, the first development, and housing operator in Morocco has decided to relaunch the tendering process for the installation of additional video surveillance systems in the old medina in order to further improve security.

In addition to revising upwards the investment planned for this project, group officials reported that the first call for tenders in the spring of last year was inconclusive, reports a local news outlet.

As part of its new ambitions, Al Omrane mobilized MAD 20.3 million, or a MAD 2.3 million increase compared to last year. A significant increase stems from the increase of 310 cameras, up from 223 last year.

Specifically, it consists in installing 238 intelligent fixed cameras, 20 PTZ cameras (mobile), twenty license plate reading cameras, and 30 facial recognition cameras around the tourist circuit of the old medina of the ocher city.

A new call for tenders has also been launched for the construction of a data center, located on the Jemaâ El Fna square, that will operate according to international standards and serve as a center for analyzing and facilitating flows of information.
