Enhances Officer Safety and Public Protection - Instantly provides a complete criminal history, giving officers the edge they need to accurately assess each situation and determine whether to call for back up or proceed to the vehicle. The community benefits from faster stops, through the elimination of lengthy delays waiting for checks to be completed. Instant Messaging and alerts such as Be-on-the-Lookout (BOLO) and Amber Alert further enhance the public's safety.
Enables more arrests - By having access to current information from numerous jurisdictions when initially encountering each suspect, officers can ensure that criminals with outstanding warrants won't slip through the cracks when they happen to be pulled over. Quickly researching a suspicious vehicle, an officer can determine on the spot whether or not it has been stolen or associated with a crime or criminals.
Reduces Radio Traffic and Improves Accuracy of Data - By giving all officers real-time access to multiple criminal justice data sources, Street Smart reduces the need for dispatchers to research suspects and vehicles for officers in the field. As a result, the Communications Center runs more smoothly, allowing dispatchers to handle more calls and support more officers.
Facilitates Faster, More Accurate and More Complete Reports - By enabling officers to generate reports from the field, they are completed more quickly. Automated field reporting workflow improves both the timeliness and accuracy of reports, with indecipherable handwriting no longer an issue to those reading them.
Saves Money and Time - Law enforcement agencies can use their existing systems and processes to manage their own data without having to go through costly modification or lengthy training. |
