Urban Securipedia is an urban security and safety knowledge base for local government and other organisations responsible for or involved in the security and safety of people and objects in the urban area. Examples of Securipedia users are: urban planners, municipality staff and law enforcement agencies responsible for the security of public space, and public event planners.
Urban Securipedia provides a structured approach to managing risk, providing practical tools for security concept development, security risk assessment and security technology evaluation, among others.
Urban Securipedia can be accessed either by selecting the aspect of interest, the urban area of interest or simply by searching for a keyword:
| Enter by aspect (select from below) |
Enter by urban object type (hover over different land uses below) |

Urban Securipedia came into existence under the EU FP7 project VITRUV and was designed to provide extensive security-related information and tooling for those involved in the design of urban areas. Later, as a result of the EU FP7 project PRoTECT, Urban Securipedia was updated to include information and tooling for protecting events held in public space against terrorist attacks. Urban Securipedia can also be accessed through the various responsibilities of the Urban planner.
An outline of the Urban Securipedia content is given in a Structure of the knowledge base.
Urban Securipedia is one of two inter-related components of computer assisted support for urban planners, to support decision-making with regard to the security of cities concerning concrete problems or goals. Each component, namely the Knowledge Base (i.e. this Urban Securipedia) and the Risk Assessment tool (SecuRbAn), work closely together, thus supporting the urban planner in ways that are described in the when to use page. The how to use page provides a concise step-by-step guide to the use of the tools. Further assistance with the use of the tools can be found in the accompanying manual.
In order to provide practical and useful support, the Securipedia contains a wealth of information on security, brought into relation with the typical areas of interest of the urban planning process, as illustrated below. Click the image for a helpful page explaining the structure and contents of the Securipedia.
