Congrats to Team USA's World Cup Advance & Security for Public Gatherings

• Separation of pedestrians and vehicles using portable barriers, public works vehicles, or choosing locations with existing protection in place
• Attendee screening at entrances - this is a big challenge even for properties designed for large gatherings
• Supplemental video surveillance - re-purposing existing security or traffic cameras to provide appropriate video surveillance that is different from their day-to-day use
• Temporary video surveillance deployments on trailers with wireless connectivity capability
• Voice communication for sending voice messages to attendees in the event of an emergency
• Drone surveillance for birds-eye-overview and improved situational awareness
• Increased physical security presence and communication with a nearby permanent or mobile security command center
• Ability for authorities to access video feeds from a temporary command post or mobile device(s)
• Supplemental lighting for evening events
• Impact of an outdoor public gathering on adjacent building or campus security - while it may not be your event, it may impact your occupants and property
• Emergency evacuation, in-building shelter, and medical response plans

What came to your mind?  Will you approach your next large gathering challenge differently?
