Friday, November 20. 2009Fighting crime with data mining
The recent article, Data-Driven Crime Fighting in Intelligent Enterprise reminded me of the feature we published in sascom earlier this year from Dr. Colleen McCue, a consultant who specializes in the provision of public safety and national security research, analysis and training.
From the Intelligent Enterprise piece:
If there was a time when law enforcement agencies suffered from an information deficit, it's passed. Of the more than 18,000 law enforcement agencies across the United States, the vast majority has some form of technology for collecting crime-related data in digital form. The biggest city agencies have sophisticated data warehouses, and even the most provincial are database savvy.  From the sascom piece, Criminal Justice in the Post-9/11 Era:While information sharing requires a cultural change and paradigm shift in the larger public safety community, advanced analytical techniques are available now. The same tools that were being used to prevent people from switching their cellular telephone service provider and to stock shelves at our local supermarkets before Sept. 11 can be used to create safer, healthier communities and enhance homeland security.
