Common Operational Picture Technology in Law Enforcement Three Case Studies

/reports/2019/12/common-operational-picture-technology-in-law-enforcement-three-case-studies

CNA performed case studies of common operational picture(COP) technology use in three law enforcement agencies. Our goal was to address thepaucity of research inthis fieldby providing practitioners and researchers with examples of how these law enforcement agencies have implemented and use these technologies. To do so, we conducted on-site qualitative data collection at the three sites, which revealed common themes among the sites regarding stakeholders, COP technology implementation, and theuse of certain COP technology features. This report lays the groundwork for future work by law enforcementagenciesand researchers in exploring COP technology use andimplementation in law enforcement settings. Researchers and practitioners must further study the efficacy of COP technology in achieving law enforcement goals, such as improving community response, reducing injuries, and preventing or reducing violent crime. This report is not intended to rank or evaluate the products listed. We did not test or evaluate the products. The report’s sole purpose is to provide the law enforcement community with information about how three agencies implemented and use COP technology.
