Description
THE USE OF TIMELY and accurate localized data to drive law enforcement operations toward more efficient and effective resource deployment is the benchmark for 21st century policing. The cornerstone of initiatives designed to achieve this benchmark is the use of mapping technologies that allow unbiased evaluation of crime and crash "hot spots," as well as the ability to deploy resources both spatially and temporally to increase effectiveness. Demonstrated by successes throughout the United States by law enforcement agencies that use data collection, analysis, and mapping programs to drive strategic operations, a unique partnership has been developed between the U.S. Departments of Transportation and Justice, through the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA), the Bureau of Justice Assistance (BJA), and the National Institute of Justice (NIJ)--the latter two being components of the Office of Justice Programs at the Department of Justice.
