A killer web application -
Information Builders, EDS, and Pennsylvania State Police Launch Crime-Reporting Web Site
WebFOCUS Technology Provides Instant Access to Detailed, Real-Time Crime Stats
NEW YORK, April 5 /PRNewswire/ -- Information Builders, the leader in Web Business Intelligence; EDS, a leading global services company; and the Pennsylvania State Police today announced the launch of the Uniform Crime Reporting (UCR) System Web site. This site, <http://ucr.psp.state.pa.us>, is designed to help local police fight crime more effectively while giving citizens easy and immediate access to crime statistics for towns, counties, regions, college campuses, and the state as a whole.
Prior to the launch of the site, for which EDS was the primary contractor, this crime data remained tied up in a dense report that was published only once a year. This new site, powered by Information Builders' WebFOCUS technology, allows crime-fighters and the public to view and analyze fresh, month-by-month data. The drill-down and analytical capabilities of the UCR site allow its users to spot trends by tracking crime over time. Additionally, users can view the annual ``Crime in PA'' report, run standard formatted reports for a selected time frame, and even build their own query using UCR data.
