Support Law Enforcement

No matter how experienced your officers and commanders are, combating crime, gangs, and other threats to public safety requires more than instinct.

It requires the kind of insight that comes from rigorously analyzing masses of information to gain a clear view not only of the immediate situation but also of what might happen next.

Predictive analytics from SPSS Inc. provides invaluable support to law enforcement in achieving this kind of insight. For example, your department can use our data mining tools to analyze aggregated or incident-level data. You might, for example, identify areas typically frequented by violent criminals, match trends in regional or national gang activity with local incidents, or anticipate which situations are likely to escalate into violence and deploy patrol officers to keep this from happening.

Other solutions offered by SPSS, such as our statistical tools, enable your department to evaluate the effectiveness of community outreach or educational programs. Or, using SPSS survey research solutions, you can securely and cost effectively measure community sentiment on a variety of issues.
