Description

The Tucson Police Department operates the Tucson Real-Time Analytical Crime Center (TRACC), a technology center staffed around the clock by law enforcement officers and at least six analysts. In addition to accessing law enforcement databases, TRACC staff monitor calls for service and live video feeds. The TRACC unit provides predictive analyses of criminal activity and traffic incidents, that “go beyond simple collection and disbursement of statistics and provide more detailed analyses of the motivations behind criminal activity,” according to a profile in Police Chief magazine 1

The Tucson Police Department also partnered with the University of Arizona Artificial Intelligence Lab to develop COPLINK, a software system that uses artificial intelligence algorithms to mine and analyze records across multiple law enforcement databases. According to the Tucson Police website, “The core software enables police officers to instantly uncover associations between people, locations, vehicles, weapons, and organizations in ways that were previously time and resource prohibitive.” COPLINK is also shared with other agencies in Arizona, including 19 police departments in the Phoenix metropolitan area 1

Tucson Police Department uses two types of Axon BWCs. One version of the camera is the Axon Flex, which has a camera that connects to a pair of glasses, with a wire that connects to a battery that attaches to an officer's shirt. The second camera is the Axon Body, which is a single one-piece camera that attaches to an officer’s shirt 1
