  2. Data-Driven Approaches to Crime and Traffic SafetyDDACTS DDACTS is an operational model that uses the integration of location-based crime and traffic data to establish effective and efficient methods for deploying law enforcement and other resources.

  3. DDACTS Goal Reduce the incidence of crime, crashes and traffic violations in a community Reduces Social Harm

  4. Why DDACTS? • Increasing Demands and Limited Resources • Conflicting / Competing Demands for Service • Crime and Crashes Often Occur in Close Proximity • Crimes Often Involve a Motor Vehicle • Vehicle Stops Can Yield Criminal Identification and Arrest

  5. DDACTS Advantages Collaborative Effort Grounded in Community-Oriented Policing Evidence Based Problem-Solving Focused Area for High Visibility Enforcement Ensures Accountability Fewer Ethical and Legal Concerns

  6. National Organization of Black Law Enforcement Executives “If the data analysis reveals that criminal activity and traffic crashes occur at a specific place within a community, then it is at that place that law enforcement activities need to be focused. A non-biased, data-driven approach to crime and traffic safety delivers law enforcement services at the right place and at the right time.” Joseph A. McMillan, NOBLE President
