Crime Information Warehouse
IBM
The Crime Information Warehouse (CIW) solution allows police departments to report, analyze, and understand crime statistics in near-real time. Rather than reacting, instant access to accurate information allows departments to redeploy in response to crime trends as they occur.
With CIW, police organizations can analyze data on their own terms including: location, signal, priority, domestic violence relation, and call-for-service holding time.
Benefits
- Better decisions and higher quality responses to crime trends and deployment requirements.
- Rapid set up based on existing systems delivers value sooner without a long implementation.
- Uniform information across the department for internal and external audiences alike.
- Users find, present, and share information through a Web browser without extensive training.
- Integrates departmental data across different systems into a single source of actionable information that better addresses policing needs.
Features
The CIW data model is the heart of the solution. Reporting and analysis are delivered by BI software from Cognos, with GIS mapping enabled by ESRI. The entire system can be tailored to the requirements of an individual police force.
Solution components include:
- IBM DB2® Data Warehouse Edition, WebSphere® Portal Server
- IBM Cognos 8 Business Intelligence
- ESRI ArcIMST GIS mapping and visualization tools
- IGS and Cognos integration and customization services
Architecture
The CIW data is queried by IBM Cognos 8 BI, which accesses DB2 (aggregates supported by Cube Views) and may be delivered through the IBM WebSphere Portal. The Cognos application runs on the IBM WebSphere Application Server.
IBM Cognos 8 BI provides an n-server architecture that supports a massive number of end users, and will scale along with IBM's components. It is validated at Level 5 of IBM's Grid Technology, allowing the customer to take advantage of excess capacity or servers during weekly processing periods.
