New approach helps operationalize the data that surrounds us to turn noise into information and information into intelligence
LAS VEGAS – (IWCE, Motorola Solutions, Booth #527) – March 12, 2013 –
Information is everywhere, but capturing and filtering the right information and
turning it into intelligence continues to be a challenge for cities across the
country. With the Real-Time Crime Center solution from Motorola Solutions Inc.(NYSE:
MSI), law enforcement officers can now approach an incident armed with more
operational intelligence than ever before. Inputs from multiple data sources
such as video, sensors, alarms, computer-aided dispatch (CAD) and records are
processed with real-time analytics to deliver one operational view. This enables
better situational awareness and allows for more proactive responses resulting
in smarter and safer decisions.
Situational awareness made available with Motorola’s Real-Time Crime Center
solution is made actionable with our integration of a radio console to enable
real-time direct voice communications with officers in the field and real-time
video streaming to a vehicle or handheld device over existing carrier or private
wireless networks. Our solution also enables the integration of existing public
and private sector cameras to provide additional, live views.
Motorola’s Real-Time Crime Center solution offers a flexible architecture
that can be tailored to suit each agency’s operating requirements while also
allowing for future expansion. Expert Integration
Services help connect CAD events, record queries, mapping and video
applications. Additional resources such as criminal complaints as well as
incident, parole and national crime databases could be connected to this
Real-Time Crime Center solution. Professional
Services help guide departments through visioning, training and needs
assessments. Design and planning also will ensure that departments are well
prepared for the organizational transformation ahead and can demonstrate
measurable improvements to their communities.
According to the Police Executive Research Forum as cited in a recent
Motorola white
paper, 90 percent of police departments plan to increase their use of
predictive policing over the next five years. The Motorola Real-Time Crime
Center solution sets the foundation for agencies to operationalize these
predictive policing strategies and realize the full promise of their video
surveillance investments by turning video into a real-time crime fighting tool.
With the Real-Time Crime Center solution, Motorola is helping public safety
agencies across the country harness relevant data and move from reacting at a
moment’s notice to more intelligent predictions and targeted counteractions.
