In the wake of the recent torrential rains that battered Bengaluru, the city’s preparedness and resilience were put to the test. On the frontline of the emergency response was the Bruhat Bengaluru Mahanagara Palike (BBMP) War Room — officially known as the Integrated Command and Control Centre (ICCC) — powered by Fluentgrid’s advanced situational awareness platform, Actilligence.

Late-night downpours caused widespread waterlogging, infrastructure strain, and traffic disruptions across the city. Early the next morning, Hon’ble CM of Karnataka Shri Siddaramaiah and Hon’ble DCM Shri D.K. Shivakumar visited the ICCC to assess the situation and review real-time updates on the damage, ongoing relief efforts, and civic resource deployment.

Actilligence: Real-time Insights for Rapid Response

Actilligence played a pivotal role in empowering BBMP officials to make timely, informed decisions. With its robust data integration and visualization capabilities, the platform provided:

• Live feeds from city-wide CCTV networks, helping monitor waterlogged zones and traffic bottlenecks.
• Geo-tagged incident reports from field workers and citizens via mobile apps, ensuring ground-level data reached decision-makers instantly.
• Automated alerts and heatmaps highlighting critical areas based on rainfall intensity, flood-prone zones, and blocked drains.
• Coordinated resource allocation, including emergency response teams, dewatering pumps, and traffic personnel — all tracked and managed through Actilligence.

Enabling Leadership with a 360-Degree View

The visit by the Hon’ble CM and Hon’ble Deputy CM underscored the importance of a centralized, intelligent command center in managing urban emergencies. At the ICCC, both leaders observed the power of Actilligence in aggregating multi-departmental data, displaying it through intuitive dashboards, and driving decisions based on real-time analytics.

Their presence also emphasized the state’s commitment to smart governance and digital transformation in civic administration.
