  • Aid in ongoing calls for service and investigations by providing real-time information to officers in the field, leading to safer and more efficient patrol and investigative responses
  • Assist in enforcement and reporting crimes through programs like online reporting and photo traffic enforcement
  • Enhance operational efficiencies with improved body-worn camera technology and report-writing tools.
