    1. 2009 Strategic Highway Safety Plan Peer Exchange – SCOHTS Annual Meeting Kenneth L. Morckel National Outreach Rep. - NHTSA Local ownership Data-driven policing Uses local data Uses non-traditional partners Reduces crime and crashes Coordinated effort between the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) and Bureau of Justice Assistance (BJA) Provide training and technical assistance Local ownership Data-driven policing Uses local data Uses non-traditional partners Reduces crime and crashes Coordinated effort between the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) and Bureau of Justice Assistance (BJA) Provide training and technical assistance

    2. Goal: Reduce the incidence of crime, crashes and traffic violations in a community by: Reducing Social Harm Increasing the Quality of Life

    3. DDACTS Data Driven Approaches to Crime and Traffic Safety is an operational model that uses the integration of location-based crime and traffic data to determine the most effective and efficient methods for deploying law enforcement and other resources. WHY: Increasing Demands and Limited Resources for law enforcement Law enforcement executives must prioritize competing demands for police services Conflict between available resources and priorities is detrimental to traffic law enforcement and to crime prevention WHY: Increasing Demands and Limited Resources for law enforcement Law enforcement executives must prioritize competing demands for police services Conflict between available resources and priorities is detrimental to traffic law enforcement and to crime prevention

    4. What is DDACTS? Local ownership Uses local data Data-driven policing Uses non-traditional partners Reduces crime and crashes Coordinated effort between the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) and Bureau of Justice Assistance (BJA) Provide training and technical assistance

    5. Why DDACTS? Increasing demands and limited resources for law enforcement Law enforcement executives must prioritize competing demands for services Conflict between available resources and priorities is detrimental to traffic law enforcement and to crime prevention Crime and crashes often occur in close proximity Many crimes involve the use of a vehicle Traffic stops can yield criminal identification and arrests and impact crashes simultaneously

    6. DDACTS Analyzing the Problem YOUR data is used YOU retain ownership of the data Traffic analysis is combined with crime analysis Crime and traffic data is used to identify areas needing attention Analyzing the local problem Assessment/measurement of local “quality of life” issues involving traffic/crime Baseline data needs/Using what is available YOUR data is used YOU retain ownership of the data Traffic analysis is combined with crime analysis Crime and traffic data is used to identify areas needing attention Analyzing the local problem Assessment/measurement of local “quality of life” issues involving traffic/crime Baseline data needs/Using what is available

    7. Guiding Principles Data Collection Review Current Data Collection and Analysis Systems Finalize Selection of Mapping Software Create a Data Collection Plan and Identify Data Sources Timely and accurate data collection and analysis Identification of the nexus of crime and traffic safety Coalition of local partnerships including the full range of stakeholders Integrated and strategic operations to extend resources and maximize impact Evaluate and mobilize operations Timely and accurate data collection and analysis Identification of the nexus of crime and traffic safety Coalition of local partnerships including the full range of stakeholders Integrated and strategic operations to extend resources and maximize impact Evaluate and mobilize operations

    8. Guiding Principles Data Analysis Develop a Clear Process for Data Analysis Develop Reporting Procedures Partners and Stakeholder Participation Identify and Make Initial Contact with Potential Partners and Stakeholders Develop a Plan for Partner and Stakeholder Participation Timely and accurate data collection and analysis Identification of the nexus of crime and traffic safety Coalition of local partnerships including the full range of stakeholders Integrated and strategic operations to extend resources and maximize impact Evaluate and mobilize operations Timely and accurate data collection and analysis Identification of the nexus of crime and traffic safety Coalition of local partnerships including the full range of stakeholders Integrated and strategic operations to extend resources and maximize impact Evaluate and mobilize operations

    9. Guiding Principles Strategic Operations Identify Countermeasures Develop an Operational Plan Implement Plan Information Sharing and Outreach Review Partner and Stakeholder Plan To Identify Tactics for Information Sharing and Outreach Develop a Communications Plan for Working with the Media Timely and accurate data collection and analysis Identification of the nexus of crime and traffic safety Coalition of local partnerships including the full range of stakeholders Integrated and strategic operations to extend resources and maximize impact Evaluate and mobilize operations Timely and accurate data collection and analysis Identification of the nexus of crime and traffic safety Coalition of local partnerships including the full range of stakeholders Integrated and strategic operations to extend resources and maximize impact Evaluate and mobilize operations

    10. Guiding Principles Monitor, Evaluate, and Adjust Use Data and Other Information to Make Adjustments to DDACTS Field Operations Document and Report Changes Outcomes are locally defined and measured Timely and accurate data collection and analysis Identification of the nexus of crime and traffic safety Coalition of local partnerships including the full range of stakeholders Integrated and strategic operations to extend resources and maximize impact Evaluate and mobilize operations Timely and accurate data collection and analysis Identification of the nexus of crime and traffic safety Coalition of local partnerships including the full range of stakeholders Integrated and strategic operations to extend resources and maximize impact Evaluate and mobilize operations

    13. Using a Crash/Crime Analysis Model Drilling down to local data Crash and crime analysis allows for a deeper understanding of a problem Provides efficiency in resource deployment A tool to address fiscal constraints Provides an unbiased basis for making strategic and tactical decisions

    15. Baltimore County Police Department DDACTS ENFORCEMENT ACTIVITY FROM MARCH 2008 TO DECEMBER 31, 2008 51,625 patrol hours 1,169 arrests 20,945 citations issued 31,010 warnings

    16. Baltimore County Police Department Crash/Crime Summary March to December 2008 These changes are based on the change from the three previous years’ data. Crash reduction 373 crashes = 187 man hour or 4.8 weeks in man hour savings.These changes are based on the change from the three previous years’ data.

    18. St. Albans, VT Problem ID Significant increases in drug, vandalism and property crime began in 2005 DDACTS focused on: High Crash Locations Drug activity Property crimes associated with illicit drug activity and use throughout the city.

    19. St. Albans Results October to December 2008 compared to same time frame in 2007 Assaults down 15% Burglary down 1% Vandalism down 20% Thefts from motor vehicles down 17% Drug and narcotic violations down 36% Crashes down 18% DUI arrests up: 156 arrests in 2007 201 arrests in 2008 DDACTS model began October 2008.

    21. St. Albans Test and Evaluation of License Plate Readers Single Pilot Deployment – November 8, 2008 2,672 plates read by two license plate readers Results showed 1 out of every 27 vehicles possibly being driven by a suspended driver The type of charge – civil or criminal – is dependent on the type of suspension under the Vermont Vehicle CodeThe type of charge – civil or criminal – is dependent on the type of suspension under the Vermont Vehicle Code

    22. Use “Hot Spots” evaluation techniques Identify specific crime and crash locations within the “hotspot” areas through: Data Analysis Intelligence Gathering Deter Gun Carrying Behavior in Vehicles in focus areas Deter Traffic Crashes in focus areas Identifying hot spots requires multiple techniques; no single method is sufficient to analyze all types of crime. Current mapping technologies have significantly improved the ability of crime analysts and researchers to understand crime patterns and victimization. Crime hot spot maps can most effectively guide police action when production of the maps is guided by crime theories (place, victim, street, or neighborhood).
