Work together to achieve shared goals
Police need to work with the community to achieve goals that create more equitable outcomes. With community engagement apps, residents can find their neighborhood police officers and leave feedback about ongoing quality-of-life problems and overall level of satisfaction with the department's work.
Use ArcGIS for demographic analysis
Understand and share information about the diversity of your agency demographics and promote equitable hiring practices. Use dashboards to understand race and gender characteristics and how they compare to the community as a whole.
Understand crime trends
Public crime mapping applications can help residents identify and understand historic and emerging crime patterns in their neighborhoods. Easy-to-create custom reports can facilitate community action meetings and help residents visualize crime trends.
Understand incidents and statistics
See statistics about how and why force was used and learn more about the communities most impacted by police use of force. Help the community understand police use-of-force incidents.
Using GIS for open policing
Data is foundational to police transparency and accountability. Use GIS tools to publish your agency's key documents and authoritative datasets, including crime and incident data, jurisdictional boundaries, general orders, annual reports, and any other key performance indicators that can help foster transparent and open policing.
