the detection stage of the command and control pattern is based on communication infrastructures, news systems and video surveillance, the analysis stage is based on information analysis, timely forecasting and timely decision-making, the planning stage is based on holding crisis management meetings, operational planning and operation management is, the promotion stage is based on sharing information, creating mobility and situational awareness in specialized police, and the impact stage is based on continuous improvement of the performance of each of the previous stages.
