Data driven smart policing: A novel road distance-based k-median model for optimal substation placement

作者:

Highlights:

• We explore the problem of placing police substations to respond to crimes in a smart city context efficiently.

• We show that police substations' optimized locations could help law enforcement agencies for effective policymaking.

• The proposed methods can also be extended for traffic workforce distribution in urban populations.

• Data-driven smart policymaking is effectively useful in the context of smart cities research.
