Abstract
A method and a system for performing crowd management in a religious site includes receiving registration information from a plurality of pilgrims, including mobile numbers for receiving text messages. The method includes periodically capturing, by a plurality of surveillance cameras, camera view images for views of each camera of respective portions of the religious site. The method includes automatically estimating a number of pilgrims in each camera view image using an Artificial Intelligence (AI) algorithm. The method includes automatically detecting a percentage of mobile numbers of pilgrims occupying overcrowded areas and sending text messages to the detected percentage of mobile numbers that direct the pilgrims to different areas where the camera view images have low crowd density.
