Video surveillance and AI: the new strategy of the Moroccan police

This year, the General Directorate of National Security (DGSN) has taken big steps towards the digital transformation and modernization of its services.

The General Directorate of National Security (DGSN) attaches importance to digital transformation. This is evidenced by its annual report for 2024. The technical teams of the DGSN have integrated the police station management system, known by the acronym GESTARR, into the new IT platform dedicated to the management of crime and misdemeanor files in police stations. . This platform makes it possible to monitor the processing of cases handled by police stations, from the collection of initial data via GESTARR to their transfer to the competent judicial authorities, including the investigation and inquiry stages. It has been used to manage criminal cases and misdemeanors in several cities such as Kenitra, Tangier, Marrakech and Meknes, as well as in the regional directorates of Ouarzazate, Errachidia, Taza and Al Hoceima, and the provincial directorates of Salé, Safi and El Jadida. This system will soon be rolled out nationally.
