Ripon, CA Location: United States Abstract:
Ripon is an upscale community of 14,000 two miles north of Modesto, near Stockton. It is situated in a two-county area with 1 million population that has become notorious for crime and auto thefts. Six years ago, Ripon had only one server for all departments and a one-page Web site. It now has 16 servers and a multi-page Web site. About three and a half years ago, the city decided it wanted to look beyond cellular data and began a two-year project to deploy a citywide Wi-Fi network. It approached other cities and its own departments, and in April 2005 it released an RFP, including a map of the city and its requirements. Ripon settled on a Motorola mesh network for a variety of governmental uses as well as unbroken connectivity at vehicle speeds of 100 mph. It awarded the bid to implement the network to Lockheed Martin, which took about a month. In July 2005, it began rolling out devices on streetlights. As of October, 90 percent of the network was deployed, including 23 video cameras in parks and in commercial and high traffic areas. The police department uses the network to access GIS maps, hazmat and homeland security information, and warrants. An AP has been attached to the city’s mobile emergency command center, and more than 50 city vehicles have been installed with the wireless modems, bringing connectivity to publics works, city engineering, and the fire district. The additional units make the network more robust. The city is in the final process of negotiating with the school district to provide broadband-wireless Internet connectivity and to deploy on-campus cameras.

Rockford, IL Location: United States Abstract:
Initially responding to crime levels in public housing quarters, the Rockford Housing Authority teamed with the Rockford Police Department to find a wireless and mobile surveillance solution. With funding from the Department of Housing and Urban Development, the city contracted Firetide to roll out the surveillance network, which consists of sixteen nodes containing a camera, battery, flashing blue light, and Wi-Fi antenna. The nodes communicate with separate relay nodes and with receiver units in police cruisers. In addition to the outdoor nodes, several units were placed inside the housing structures and in elevators. The system was easily installed in three months and is completely self-contained. No reconfiguration of the existing network was required. While capturing useful footage, the surveillance nodes also serve as a visual deterrant to crime, reducing the instances of drive-by drug deals by far more than expected. In addition, residents' confidence in the safety of the premises and in reporting crimes has increased. The public safety network has been an inexpensive boon to the response ability of the police force as well as to the image of public housing generally. As funds permit, the Rockford Housing Authority plans to extend the network to offer free or inexpensive Wi-Fi access to residents, thereby contributing to digital inclusion.

Tucson, AZ Location: United States Abstract:
In a coordinated effort between Tucson’s Transportation and Fire Departments and University Medical Center, the city has deployed a Wi-Fi mesh network on traffic signals to enable multiple applications, from traffic-signal monitoring to video streaming on local ambulances. As of mid-2007, the network was deployed on 240 traffic lights and 30 outbuildings with an ultimate goal of 500 APs. Tucson secured funding from Arizona’s Surface Transportation Program and has applied for additional grant money from the U.S. D.O.T. to enable expansion of the network well beyond city limits.
