AI-Powered Baseer Platform: Advanced Technology for Seamless Hajj Crowd Management

Mina, June (پاکستان پوائنٹ نیوز ‎‎‎ 08 يونيو 2025ء) Developed by the Saudi Data and Artificial Intelligence Authority (SDAIA) in collaboration with the Ministry of Interior, the Baseer platform extends the Kingdom’s vision of leveraging modern technology to serve humanity. It has played a vital role in enabling authorities to promptly locate missing individuals—both adults and children—and guide their families to them, significantly reducing search times and restoring peace of mind to pilgrims and worshippers.

Baseer’s contributions extend beyond locating missing persons. The platform has supported crowd management within the two holy mosques, helping reduce congestion during peak times and ensuring smooth movement in corridors and courtyards. This has allowed worshippers to perform their prayers in a calm and safe environment, free from overcrowding or jostling, while upholding the highest standards of safety and care.

The platform has also enabled relevant authorities to perform their duties efficiently through AI-powered computer vision technologies, allowing them to anticipate potential incidents, allocate resources in real time, and make precise decisions that support pilgrims' safety.

This achievement reflects a unique model of integration between technology and human-centered service. Baseer has evolved from a digital platform into an effective tool facilitating the spiritual journey and ensuring a safe environment that respects the sanctity of the place and the spirituality of the time. The platform embodies Saudi Arabia’s commitment to a secure and seamless Hajj experience.
