Increased data from video, social media and other sources has public safety turning to advanced technology to help make data actionable for faster-than-ever crime detection, prevention and resolution. Motorola Solutions is partnering with Wynyard Group to integrate next-generation crime analytics to help law enforcement agencies connect disparate data sources such as criminal history, social media networks, property records, field notes and other types of evidence. The software helps identify criminal patterns and explore relationships by analyzing data in minutes rather than days, freeing up agency resources to investigate leads and solve cases.

The Wynyard Group software enhances CommandCentral by connecting the dots between multiple databases and evidence libraries to help investigators quickly prevent and solve crime.
