The main centre at the secretariat is connected to centres in all the 13 districts in the state. Linked to the system is data of all households in the state and the benefits they are entitled to under welfare programmes. There will also be a call centre for addressing grievances of the beneficiaries.
The state centre will get data from other sources like surveillance system, drones, biometric augmented technology, machine learning technology and the Andhra Pradesh Weather Forecasting and Early Warning Research Centre. It will have support from the AP State Fibernet Limited (APSFL), AP Towers, AP Content Corporation, AP Virtual Classes Corporation and Drones Corporation of AP.
The centre has a barco-wall (giant screen) which can show multiple screens simultaneously and dash boards with information on grievances reports, weather casts, visuals, cc camera footage and real-time progress of ongoing projects.
