The epidemic surges in certain \u201chotspot\u201d areas, notably the city\u2019s Kensington neighborhood.\r\n\r\n\u201cKensington is ground zero for the opioid problem on the East Coast, and one of the country\u2019s biggest heroin markets,\u201d says Kevin Thomas, director of research and analysis for the Philadelphia Police Department (PPD).\r\n\r\nLaw enforcement officers in Philadelphia tackle the problem by doing more than just racking up drug-related arrests. PPD uses <a href=\"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/en-us\/location-intelligence\">location intelligence<\/a>\u2014through a geographic information system (GIS) that enables analytics and collaboration with other city agencies\u2014as a key part of its response to the ongoing public health emergency."},{"acf_fc_layout":"image","image":265092,"image_position":"center","orientation":"horizontal","hyperlink":""},{"acf_fc_layout":"content","content":"The team\u2019s analysis takes several forms, including correlating the locations of overdoses. For example, most heroin sold on the street is identified by its \"heroin stamp,\" the images and icons dealers emboss on the bags they sell. PPD officers can trace the stamps responsible for geographic \u201cclusters\u201d of multiple overdoses, and tie them back to the originating street corner and drug organizations.\r\n\r\n\u201cWe can track overdoses, so we have that data all in one place,\u201d Thomas says. \u201cWe also built an application to track the stamps. Combining those two data-gathering efforts, and the intelligence that supports them, we can say \u2018okay, these are the three corners that you need to send your police officers to shut down narcotics operations, because we want to tamp down that overdose spike.\u2019\u201d\r\n\r\nUsing GIS technology allows police to focus on the geographic locations where the epidemic is most concentrated. In this way, a seemingly intractable problem that can\u2019t be solved merely by arrests becomes more manageable.\r\n\r\nThis work relates to a larger PPD initiative, Operation Pinpoint, launched earlier this year. The goal is to combine data-driven information from various sources with real-time, ground-level intelligence from officers on patrol. Pinpoint enforcement zones are selected based on data analysis. Officers use this analysis to plan when and where their outreach will have the most impact."},{"acf_fc_layout":"image","image":266662,"image_position":"center","orientation":"horizontal","hyperlink":""},{"acf_fc_layout":"content","content":"<strong>Determining Optimal Deployment<\/strong>\r\n\r\nThe GIS aspect of Operation Pinpoint allows for a useful \u201cfeedback loop,\u201d as information regarding the location and activity of officers shapes future analysis. Every five seconds, a mobile data computer in every PPD vehicle calculates and transmits the vehicle\u2019s position.\r\n\r\n\u201cWe can present information to command staff, supervisors, and commissioners, to help them evaluate and adjust their deployment,\u201d Thomas says. \u201cIt\u2019s about understanding deployment patterns using a passive measure like GPS [location], instead of, say, being so focused on things like stops, arrests, and curfews. We\u2019re trying to integrate that back into CompStat so that we can understand how much proactive police time is going into certain grids.\u201d\r\n\r\nCompStat is a catch-all term for a type of statistics-driven approach to law enforcement pioneered in New York City in the 1990s, and now considered a standard accountability practice in many police departments, including Philadelphia\u2019s. GIS has always been integral to the CompStat approach, and using GPS data represents a logical next step. As the amount and diversity of data available to police increases, GIS provides a common platform and framework for warehousing data and providing analytics. And because it displays data in the context of physical location, GIS allows police to visualize the complex workings of the city with maximum clarity.\r\n\r\nIn Philadelphia, the police themselves can become an important data point. The presence of cluster points where police cars coalesce can highlight new hotspots. \u201cThe saying in CompStat,\u201d Thomas points out, \u201cis what gets measured gets done.\u201d"},{"acf_fc_layout":"image","image":265102,"image_position":"center","orientation":"horizontal","hyperlink":""},{"acf_fc_layout":"content","content":"<strong>Looking at Problems in a New Light<\/strong>\r\n\r\nLocation data helps PPD design unique policing plans for different areas of the city, especially the 46 designated \u201chotspot\u201d regions where violent crime is most prevalent. \u201cEach one of those targeted areas should have an articulated plan, so that everyone, all different aspects of the organization, can understand what their role is in supporting the solution,\u201d Thomas says. For Kensington, locus of the opioid trade, police are faced with a hotspot area with a highly transient population and a constantly changing set of offenders.\r\n\r\n\u201cWhat we\u2019re trying to do is look at things on a neighborhood basis, not a topic basis,\u201d Thomas says of the GIS-based approach, which gives PPD a solid view of the various ways local characteristics can be both cause and symptom of crime. \u201cWhere you have violence, you\u2019ll also have blight problems.

Solving them requires the input of other city agencies, quasi-governmental agencies, and even the private sector.\u201d\r\n\r\nThe use of GIS to visualize problems in context of location along with collaboration across city and private agencies are part of a uniquely ambitious plan to revolutionize the process of urban law enforcement.\r\n\r\n\u201cThis is not a short-term solution, something we\u2019re using to just knock down crime this summer\u2014we are changing how the organization operates,\u201d Thomas says. \u201cIt\u2019s changing how we communicate, how we do police work, how we share information and intelligence, and how we coordinate goals and objectives.

Any method of storing and processing this information must balance privacy concerns with flexibility. It must also comply with the strict protocols of the FBI\u2019s Criminal Justice Information Services Division (CJIS).\r\n\r\nFor the Philadelphia Police Department, the natural choice was a cloud-based system. Building Pinpoint around Microsoft\u2019s CJIS-compliant Azure Government platform eliminated the need for 25 on-premise servers. It also simplified the process of importing terabytes of data into a GIS environment.\r\n\r\n\u201cIn terms of storage and computing capacity, the cloud is phenomenal,\u201d says Andrew Smart, Senior GIS Consultant at geographIT a division of EBA Engineering, an Esri business partner helping PPD establish and manage their Azure cloud platform that makes Pinpoint possible. \u201cWe can quickly provision servers to support the platform without having to acquire and wire physical hardware as well as continually monitor and scale the environment to support the growing needs.\u201d\r\n\r\nPPD\u2019s Kevin Thomas agrees. \u201cWe went to the cloud because we lack the necessary amount of internal IT staff,\u201d he says. \u201cDue to slow procurement processes and lack of IT staff, it is incredibly difficult for us to maintain servers on premises and refresh them every five years.\u201d\r\n\r\nThe ability of Azure to help PPD scale the project up or down as needed was apparent from Pinpoint\u2019s earliest implementation. Soon after the launch of the system that displayed the real-time location of PPD\u2019s fleet, Smart placed an urgent call to Thomas. The Automatic Vehicle Location (AVL) server was operating over capacity, dropping data as it attempted to process the overload.\r\n\r\n\u201cKevin,\u201d he asked, \u201cwhat\u2019s going on?\u201d\r\n\r\nIt turned out that the system, which was supposed to roll out gradually to devices, had been pushed to every car at the outset. The deluge of 400+ records per second from over 500 cars was too much for the server to handle in its current configuration.\r\n\r\n\u201cIf this was an on-premise box, we would\u2019ve been in trouble,\u201d Thomas says, laughing at the memory of the crisis. \u201cBut we could just go to that server, increase the resource in Azure, and stabilize the environment within five minutes from the time we received an alert about the issue. All of a sudden you could see usage drop to a reasonable level. And we were fine.\u201d","snippet":""}],"references":null},"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v25.9 (Yoast SEO v25.9) -
