CPS Solutions is a software development company that specializes in crime mapping and data management. Below are examples of how some local police departments are using CPS Solutions' products to help better serve their communities.

Manteca PD chooses CPS Map and CPS Map-Web for sophisticated analysis capabilities, providing a valued community resource

The Manteca PD crime analyst prefers CPS Map to another mapping product because it offers streamlined ease and provides a highly sophisticated analysis tool. The analyst notes that the software shows patterns of activity and quickly reveals when, where and what the problem is. A simple query of “calls for service” reveals hot spots instantly. “Spatial select” options dynamically display day-of-week and time-of-incident data allowing for analysis and action.

For example, Manteca PD became aware of a burglary series. CPS Map helped the analyst to assess the situation and identify patterns, which therefore aided in knowing how best to target the burglary operation. Manteca PD was able to deploy resources to saturate the area.

The Manteca PD Chief of Police upped the anti by offering CPS Map-Web. This intelligent tool allows public access to crime data and crime mapping, and ultimately serves as a crime prevention and community awareness tool. Citizens can view maps and patterns of crime activity. This means the public is more aware and more capable of alerting law enforcement of suspicious activity.

Lodi PD selects CPS Map for its easy, intuitive interface and CPS Mobile to improve response time

The sergeants and lieutenants at the Lodi police department assumed ownership of CPS Map instantly. They were virtually trained and productive users within a “shift or two.” Within days the benefits of CPS Map were apparent. Lodi PD used it to improve staffing levels and for shift alignment, matching demand for service with resources, thereby enhancing community service and safety. Additional benefits included office and staffing efficiencies, reduced officer call-backs and assessment of work performance (per number of calls handled and time spent on each call.)

Lodi employed CPS Mobile to improve officer response time. With mapping capabilities, offender look-up, and an address locator tool, officers can be on-scene faster, serving the community fully. Lodi PD also benefits from parameter/perimeter warnings, which provide alerts to known hazards to officers.

Pleasant Hill PD gives department new eyes, new vision with
CPS Map-Net

The Pleasant Hill PD wanted everyone in the department to “see” what analysts and managers were seeing. They chose to implement CPS Map-Net to aggregate data for beat officers on the “Intranet”, and show hot spots and crime patterns, which are crucial to effective community policing. Furthermore, the sharing of this data via CPS Map-Net means that officers can see call types and more fully understand management decisions for increased patrol. CPS Map-Net is a low cost solution to agency-wide communication and understanding.
