Backers say it'll help the crime-ridden city deal with murder and even prevent it. Activists fear it'll become a tool for \u003ca href=\"http://www.eastbayexpress.com/oakland/the-real-purpose-of-oaklands-surveillance-center/Content?oid=3789230\">spying\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>While these two sides disagree, starkly, they both assume one thing: that the surveillance center will actually work. But is that true? Experts in Silicon Valley’s surveillance industry say it's more like science fiction.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Most of the money for the surveillance center is coming from the Department of Homeland Security. It's an anti-terrorism grant to protect the harbor. So City Councilman Dan Kalb didn't get what all the controversy was about, if the center was just going to pull camera feeds from the port.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>At a hearing, he asked the rhetorical question: “This is all on port property, including airport, all of port property, right? It's not the rest of the city?\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Wrong.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>City staff explained it is the rest of the city -- thousands of live feeds, even from the Coliseum. But no cameras would go into people's living rooms. So Kalb gave the nod. \"All right, sounds good to me!\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That exchange happened at a council meeting a few months back. The center has been five years in the making. It's supposed to go live this summer. But it doesn't sound so good to experts in Silicon Valley who specialize in surveillance. With just a cursory look at the project, they say, the city is making some textbook mistakes.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Data overload\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Take data overload.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"When you start by grabbing whatever data you can find and then hoping to get insight out of it later, it becomes a very drawn-out expensive process,\" says Feris Rifai, “and frankly a bit of an upside-down approach.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Rifai is CEO of \u003ca href=\"http://www.baydynamics.com/\">Bay Dynamics\u003c/a>, a San Francisco company that builds big data tools for big banks.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>City officials paint this futuristic picture of supercomputers pulling in feeds from cameras, gunshot detectors, license plate readers, 911 calls, criminal records. Analysts sitting in front of giant monitors will scan data round the clock, cross-reference GPS coordinates and email real-time reports to first responders.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ciframe src=\"https://w.soundcloud.com/player/?url=https%3A//api.soundcloud.com/tracks/133435454&color=ff5500&auto_play=false&hide_related=false&show_artwork=true\" frameborder=\"no\" scrolling=\"no\" width=\"100%\" height=\"166\">\u003c/iframe>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It sounds very familiar, like the sci-fi hit \"\u003ca href=\"http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Minority_Report_%28film%29\">Minority Report\u003c/a>\" with Tom Cruise.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Hollywood aside, back in Oakland, the city’s chief technology officer Ahsan Baig sums up the vision: “From child abduction to robbery to overturned truck, this whole process is going to automate this whole thing. So everything is going to be available right in front of you.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But Rifai says big data doesn't work that way. It takes some focus. And given the lack of focus in Oakland, several experts say there's a good chance the city will spend a lot more than $1.25 million (the amount from Homeland Security).\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"From our experience with organizations collecting everything and then trying to figure out what to do with it,” Firai says, “it is going to be a costly project beyond what the federal money they've secured provides them today. So that's our prediction.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Basic contradictions\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Cost isn't the only issue. There's a lot of confusion in the core team -- even with simple things like hours of operation.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Port of Oakland is not staffed 24 hours a day. As Chief Michael O'Brien explains, if an alarm goes off, say at 4 a.m., no one's there to check if it's an organized crime gang or a stray cat. With a central hub, police and firefighters can be the port's eyes. \u003c/p>\n\u003caside class=\"pullquote alignleft\"> 'People look for technological silver bullets to solve problems, when often times there are very serious policy, legal and societal issues that are really the problems.' \u003c/aside>\n\u003cp>O’Brien says, “The plan is to have a 24/7 operation.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But the city’s chief of emergency services, Renee Domingo, assumes the opposite. “We envision that there's a dark period when there's nothing going on and rather than having 24 hours, we're trying to be as efficient as possible in terms of the staffing.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That dark period would be around 4 a.m.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>In-house expertise\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Domingo says the surveillance center is one of the most ambitious projects Oakland has undertaken to reduce crime. Everyone wants a safer city.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But she's still not sure if the top dog on this project will be a high-ranking public official or a private contractor. Domingo says employees from the city will make up most of the staff.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"They could be record-keepers, they could be emergency planning coordinators, maybe retired dispatch people -- people that have worked in dispatch centers,” she says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Michael McNerney, a former cyber-advisor at the Department of Defense, thinks that is practically infeasible. “Knowing what you’re looking at is a specialized skill set.

But is that true? Experts in Silicon Valley’s surveillance industry say it's more like science fiction.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Most of the money for the surveillance center is coming from the Department of Homeland Security. It's an anti-terrorism grant to protect the harbor. So City Councilman Dan Kalb didn't get what all the controversy was about, if the center was just going to pull camera feeds from the port.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>At a hearing, he asked the rhetorical question: “This is all on port property, including airport, all of port property, right?

But no cameras would go into people's living rooms. So Kalb gave the nod. \"All right, sounds good to me!\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That exchange happened at a council meeting a few months back. The center has been five years in the making. It's supposed to go live this summer. But it doesn't sound so good to experts in Silicon Valley who specialize in surveillance. With just a cursory look at the project, they say, the city is making some textbook mistakes.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Data overload\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Take data overload.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"When you start by grabbing whatever data you can find and then hoping to get insight out of it later, it becomes a very drawn-out expensive process,\" says Feris Rifai, “and frankly a bit of an upside-down approach.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Rifai is CEO of \u003ca href=\"http://www.baydynamics.com/\">Bay Dynamics\u003c/a>, a San Francisco company that builds big data tools for big banks.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>City officials paint this futuristic picture of supercomputers pulling in feeds from cameras, gunshot detectors, license plate readers, 911 calls, criminal records.

So everything is going to be available right in front of you.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But Rifai says big data doesn't work that way. It takes some focus. And given the lack of focus in Oakland, several experts say there's a good chance the city will spend a lot more than $1.25 million (the amount from Homeland Security).\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"From our experience with organizations collecting everything and then trying to figure out what to do with it,” Firai says, “it is going to be a costly project beyond what the federal money they've secured provides them today.

There's a lot of confusion in the core team -- even with simple things like hours of operation.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Port of Oakland is not staffed 24 hours a day. As Chief Michael O'Brien explains, if an alarm goes off, say at 4 a.m., no one's there to check if it's an organized crime gang or a stray cat. With a central hub, police and firefighters can be the port's eyes. \u003c/p>\n\u003caside class=\"pullquote alignleft\"> 'People look for technological silver bullets to solve problems, when often times there are very serious policy, legal and societal issues that are really the problems.' \u003c/aside>\n\u003cp>O’Brien says, “The plan is to have a 24/7 operation.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But the city’s chief of emergency services, Renee Domingo, assumes the opposite. “We envision that there's a dark period when there's nothing going on and rather than having 24 hours, we're trying to be as efficient as possible in terms of the staffing.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That dark period would be around 4 a.m.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>In-house expertise\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Domingo says the surveillance center is one of the most ambitious projects Oakland has undertaken to reduce crime.

Domingo says employees from the city will make up most of the staff.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"They could be record-keepers, they could be emergency planning coordinators, maybe retired dispatch people -- people that have worked in dispatch centers,” she says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Michael McNerney, a former cyber-advisor at the Department of Defense, thinks that is practically infeasible. “Knowing what you’re looking at is a specialized skill set.
