 | In this series, CNA studies the use of emerging technologies by law enforcement agencies. The Las Vegas (Nevada) Metropolitan Police Department (LVMPD) implemented a number of cameras and monitoring equipment that is managed in a 24/7 real-time crime center named Fusion Watch. Fusion Watch coordinates closed-circuit security cameras, automatic license plate readers, gunshot detection, facial recognition, and crime pattern analysis software into one monitoring location to help make strategic crime reduction decisions. The camera system was designed to help with proactive crime control in high traffic areas and real-time monitoring of public safety issues. This case study also covers some of the policies and procedures regarding privacy issues that are being considered with the use of cameras and automation. Fusion Watch helps the LVMPD with its effectiveness and efficiency in responding to crimes. This case study is part of the Addressing Crime through Innovative Technology series.
