Tyler Technologies Inc. has announced that the Brownsville Police Department and Laredo Police Department in Texas have selected Tyler's New World public safety and Socrata data platform solutions. The solutions will enable data-driven policing and help the agencies improve information-sharing with neighboring police departments in the region.
The Brownsville PD selected Tyler to replace a 20-year-old legacy computer-aided dispatch (CAD) and records management system. In addition to providing its New World public safety product suite, Tyler will also implement Socrata Data Insights. The police department will use advanced analytics technology to aid in resource and tactics decisions for the agency. Once the solutions are implemented, Brownsville will be able to share information with other Tyler solutions in use in the city, as well as in Cameron County, including Incode court and Odyssey case management. In addition, the police department can manage CAD-to-CAD calls between the city and county, helping to create efficiencies for staff.
