Real-Time Crime Centers (RTCCs) leverage innovative technologies to help law enforcement agencies respond strategically to crime. RTCCs can help officers respond quickly to crimes in progress by producing actionable intelligence through data analysis. RTCCs can also identify high-crime areas so that agencies can direct resources efficiently. RTCCs can improve investigation of gun-involved crimes, including gang violence, homicides, and non-fatal shootings.
