Today's law enforcement organizations have a wealth of information available to them - technology allows vast amounts of data to be sorted, filtered, sliced and diced to help connect the dots. However, most of this information is compartmentalized and is either not easily accessed, or restricted, by those on the front lines fighting crime. Information is often buried in lists, databases and information sources at headquarters - or worse, in email. Imagine if your life depended on whether or not you can recall if the subject you just encountered is wanted for a recent homicide. A bulletin came out two weeks ago in an email - will you remember? Unfortunately the offender knows he committed the crime, but you don't.
NC4 Street Smart organizes all information an organization has and delivers it in a simple design interface for the front lines. A quick search of a subjects name crawls all data the organization has - from traditional sources like CAD and RMS to electronic station log books, bulletins, offender lists and other structured data sources. In addition to structured sources, NC4 Street Smart brings collaborative, crowdsourcing tools such as Blogs that allow officers to naturally communicate. Data can be updated in real-time instead of waiting for traditional reporting, allowing real-time crime fighting to keep them safe.
