Where to patrol on weekend nights
The weekend patrol plan from where bars and nightclubs are.
What it does
Every Friday: bars and nightclubs in your city counted by district, the busiest areas written up by xMap AI as the weekend patrol plan, emailed and mapped.
In one sentence: Fridays at 16:00, in Amsterdam, find bars and night clubs in the area, write a report with xMap AI, then show them on a map and email the list to you.
Why it is useful
Weekend trouble follows nightlife. Patrols placed where the bars are prevent most of it.
Who it is for
Security, safety & emergency services. Security companies, alarm installers, police, fire and ambulance services and safety teams covering people and places. Every use case for security & emergency services
Best use cases
- A city patrol service
- A night-time economy team

What each run gives you
- A map
- An email
The time it saves
Fridays at 16:00. Doing the same work by hand takes about 45 minutes each time; it runs about 5 times a month, so it saves about 4 hours a month (an estimate). It is easy: 6 blocks.
