Urban space monitoring and surveillance systems are present almost everywhere in various forms of sensing devices such as closed-circuit television, smartphone, and camera. This requires a robust and easy-to-manage information and communication technology (ICT) infrastructure that is generally comprises sensors, protocols, networks, and steps. Smart adoption of such systems could influence, manage, direct, and protect human beings and property. Nevertheless, it may create problems of government support, data quality, privacy, and security. Today�s computational world allows implementation of artificial intelligence models for big data analytics to bring cities smart (with intelligence and optimal improvement). This chapter will discuss the applications of urban space monitoring and surveillance systems via ICT. The typical limitations of the current research are discussed in detail. © 2019 Elsevier Inc.
