<br /> 50 | P a g e <br />City of San Leandro, CA <br />Fiber Master Plan <br />been shown to have the same inherent biases that humans do and this is an <br />ongoing dialogue within the data science, law enforcement, and public policy <br />community36. <br /> <br />• Drones. Drone technology is used in search and rescue, traffic collision analysis, <br />active shooter situations, crime scene analysis, and more. This usage is predicted <br />to increase over the coming years as drones become more widespread37. <br />However, drone surveillance can be an issue of contention for the public. This <br />requires open discussion with the community as well as adherence to existing <br />federal and state laws. <br /> <br />The Smart City Strategy section of this Plan recommends continuing to explore the usage <br />of these powerful new technologies. SLPD, in its community-based partnership approach, <br />is well positioned to continue its leadership and advancement of smart city technology to <br />improve public safety outcomes and overall quality of life for its residents. <br /> <br />PUBLIC WI-FI <br /> <br />There are many use-cases for modern Public Wi-Fi systems and municipalities have <br />become proficient at using Wi-Fi at City facilities to support municipal operations. In <br />addition, City governments have increasingly looked at Wi-Fi as a means to provide social <br />and public benefits, such as digital inclusion, economic development, and providing <br />service to students who do not have connectivity at home. An emerging use-case includes <br />backhaul connectivity for IoT networks38. <br /> <br />San Leandro is known nationally for being a leader in supporting Public Wi-Fi projects. <br />When it launched a free service in its downtown core in 2015, it was highlighted in media <br />publications for its innovative Wi-Fi designs39. Throughout 2016, Wi-Fi was expanded to <br />all City facilities, including the Senior Community Center, Main Library, City Hall, Police <br />Department, Public Works Service Center, and Water Pollution Control Plant. Public, <br />outdoor Wi-Fi was expanded in 2016 to the San Leandro History Museum and <br />surrounding open space at the Casa Peralta and Cherry Festival area. <br /> <br /> <br />36 http://theconversation.com/why-big-data-analysis-of-police-activity-is-inherently-biased-72640 <br />37 http://www.thedrive.com/aerial/15092/drones-in-law-enforcement-how-where-and-when-theyre-used <br />38 https://pages.nist.gov/GCTC/uploads/blueprints/20170823-GCTC-PWSC-Public-WIFI-Blueprint-FINAL-v2.pdf <br />39 http://www.governing.com/topics/transportation-infrastructure/san-leandro-calif-launches-free-wi-fi.html
