Systems for Decision Making October 21‚ 2012 In 1994‚ the New York City Police Department adopted a law enforcement crime fighting strategy known as COMPSTAT (COMPuter STATistics). COMPSTAT uses Geographic Information Systems (GIS) to map the locations of where crimes occur‚ identify “ hotspots”‚ and map problem areas. COMPSTAT has amassed a wealth of historical crime data. Mathematicians have designed and developed algorithms that run against the historical data to predict future crimes

bigger arrest. The main tool that Bratton used was a system called Compstat‚ which tracked crimes by neighborhood and highlighted areas of focus. Before Braton became the NYPD commissioner crime statistics were only compiled on a quarterly basis‚ which had little use for reducing crime. Bratton insisted that crime figures would be compiled weekly and pin-maps would be kept up to date. The biggest reason for the success of Compstat was that it evolved from something somewhat primitive to very extensive

COMPSTAT provided a road map to getting officers back to fighting crime.

Is that individual a hero that we see on television‚ a cartoon character‚ a family member‚ or is that person a public servant?
