Introduction
Due to budget cuts, the city of Camden, New Jersey, lost half of the police force that served its 75,000 residents. According to the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI), in 2011 Camden was one of the most dangerous cities in the United States. A type of MSS called Real Time Tactical Information Center, a $4.5 million project, is changing the crime rate in Camden significantly. The system combines gunshot-spotting cameras, in-cruiser GPS technology, and analytics to provide real-time information for the police force. With the help of the system, violent and nonviolent crimes have been reduced 30 and 38 percent, respectively, and aggravated assaults with a firearm are down 61 percent. Camden County Police Chief Scott J. Thomson says the system has reduced 911 response time from the 9-minute national average to 90 seconds in Camden. The system has eliminated police dispatchers by automatically sending the two nearest police officers to the crime scene; their police cars are GPS-tracked. The system also includes 120 cameras located around the city that send updated information every 1.5 seconds to patrol car computer screens. This information enables officers to see where emergencies are happening at any given time. Squad cars are also equipped with cameras that can take pictures of license plates and run them instantly through the FBI’s National Crime Information Center. Additionally, the system keeps track of the officers’ movements throughout the city and alerts them as to whether or not they are spending adequate time in each location.
