For the last decade, the dominant approach to organizational data has been simple: centralize everything. Data “lakes,” dashboards, and analytics workbenches promised a single place to store and explore information. And in many ways, they delivered on that promise. Organizations today have more data than ever before, but access to data isn’t the same as the ability to act on it.
2026 will test American cities’ public safety infrastructure in ways few recent years have. The San Francisco Bay Area has already experienced the impact of increased public safety and security activity. Next up, eleven US cities will host FIFA World Cup matches over five weeks, bringing in visitors from across the globe.
From his assignment to community policing unit to using Velocity to enrich CRPD's Safe to Tell program, Sergeant Longuevan outlines just how critical tools that surface public safety data are to his success in maintaining community safety and providing safety and support to students in Castle Rock's schools.
The next phase of evidence-based policing will not be defined by the publication of another landmark study. It will be defined by whether agencies invest in the internal capacity required to engage seriously with the evidence that already exists.
In policing, information is often the difference between reacting and responding with purpose. Field interviews and CAD notes — the details captured during everyday calls and citizen interactions — form the connective tissue of modern investigations. They are the observations that didn’t make the arrest or incident report (if there even was one), the names that didn’t quite rise to probable cause, and the context that explains why something felt off.
