Upcoming Webinar: Crime Early Warning Systems – Automated Data Mining of CAD and RMS Databases with HunchLab

It is impossible to address an emerging crime problem without first identifying that something unusual is occurring.  With departments producing ever more volumes of data, how can a law enforcement agency shift analyst resources away from manually sifting through datasets and toward figuring out how to address emerging problems? 

HunchLab provides automated geographic data mining capabilities to do just that.   Your datasets are imported into HunchLab on a regular basis from other systems such as your CAD and RMS databases.   HunchLab analyzes the new data in combination with historic data to determine areas that are experiencing statistically unusual levels of activity.   The system then automatically sends alerts to the staff responsible for the particular area, linking them back into HunchLab to determine the appropriate action to take.

This webinar will introduce the concept of mining your incident data for anomalies and demonstrate how HunchLab automates the data mining process for your officers and analysts.

By attending you will be able to answer:

  • What is data mining and why is it useful?
  • What is a Hunch within HunchLab?
  • How can an officer without GIS experience enter a search pattern for future analysis?
  • How can an analyst setup data mining across a large geographic region such as an entire city within HunchLab?
