Key benefits outlined in this video. Introduce Patrol Points:

Patrol points are visual indicators on an interactive map that show where officers have and have not patrolled.

They are typically represented as small circles, but in high crime areas, they may be shown as triangles.

How Patrol Points Help with Patrols

Visibility into Coverage: The patrol points allow officers and administrators to see which areas have been patrolled and which areas may have been missed.

Directing Resources: Administrators can use the patrol point data to determine if certain neighborhoods need more frequent patrols (e.g. every 2-4 hours) versus others (e.g. once per 24 hours).

Improving Efficiency: When starting a shift, officers can use the patrol point data to quickly identify areas that need to be patrolled, ensuring better coverage of the entire zone.

Enhancing Community Presence: Officers can proactively patrol areas that haven’t been visited in a few days to maintain a visible presence in the community.
