Traffic intelligence, situational awareness, and disaster coordination.
Officers run 10–12 hour shifts with no real-time data while road deaths, protests, and disasters stretch a thin force even thinner. This theme is about giving police the situational awareness and coordination tools they currently lack.
Each problem below is a direction, not a blueprint. Pick one, research what already exists, and build a solution that ships.
How can technology help traffic police manage roads, intersections, and accident hotspots more safely - given severe understaffing and rapidly growing vehicle numbers?
How can technology help Nepal Police plan, monitor, and manage public gatherings - reducing the risk of disproportionate response and civilian harm?
How can technology improve coordination between Nepal Police and other agencies - and the public - during floods, landslides, and earthquakes?
The problem statements above are simple guides to point you in the right direction. They are not prescriptive specifications. Participants are fully encouraged to apply their own creativity, research, and analysis - as long as the solution stays within the scope of usability and feasibility for Nepal Police.
Before building, participants are strongly requested to research existing tools and resources already available in Nepal Police, to avoid duplicating something that already exists. If you cannot find relevant information, or have questions about technical constraints, legal boundaries, existing systems, or operational realities, contact the contact persons listed on this page. They will walk you through everything - from technical details to legal frameworks.
Form a team of 3–4, pick a problem statement, and ship something that serves Nepal Police and the citizens of Lumbini Province.
