The Saudi Data and Artificial Intelligence Authority (SDAIA) is establishing the Smart Mecca Operation Center (Smart MOC) to ensure the safety and comfort of pilgrims, and to enhance their access to announcements and services. Smart MOC boasts a team of skilled national cadres in programming, data, and artificial intelligence, overseeing the platform's operations and providing accurate analysis.
A notable achievement of the center is the "Basyir" platform, a real-time computer vision system using advanced technical systems and national algorithms for crowd management at the Grand Mosque. This initiative aligns with SDAIA's goals to assist tourists and pilgrims visiting the Grand Mosque in Saudi Arabia using modern data technology and artificial intelligence. The center's capabilities include monitoring and controlling activities, as well as ensuring convenient automobile traffic, making it a leading smart platform in the Middle East for managing large crowds and enhancing logistical operations.
