Abstract
Techniques for determining information about an incident by one or more sensors in a streetlight, utility meter, and/or other device are described herein. A device proximate a sensor(s) can process sensor data to determine an incident type and/or an incident location in an environment. For example, the device can detect presence of a weather event, an accident, a crime, a crowd control event, a fire, a flood, and so on. In some examples, the device can identify other sensors in a vicinity of the incident (e.g., attached to other streetlights, utility meters, transformers, etc.), and select sensors for gathering additional information about the incident based on the incident type and/or the incident location.
