Notes
The Brussels police zone's own description states it uses BriefCam to convert hours of CCTV footage into minutes of targeted review. Recorded with lower confidence than the French and Dutch entries above: the source is the police force's own promotional description rather than an independent inspection or an official transparency register, and no usage statistics or legal framework were available in the material reviewed.
Sourcing note, verified August 2026: the available documentation is vendor case-study material rather than a police or government disclosure, and should be read as such. It describes the deployment as operated by the Brussels Regional Informatics Centre (BRIC), which since around 2014-2015 has centralised video from six local police zones, the Metro system and Bruxelles Mobilite onto a single platform. In that documentation BriefCam functions as an analytics extension within a Genetec Security Center video management deployment, rather than as a standalone force procurement. Two caveats follow: the operator is a regional IT body serving multiple police zones rather than a single police zone, and the vendor material does not establish the specific start date recorded on this entry. Both points would benefit from a Belgian procurement or oversight-body source.
