Use of Information Technology by Law Enforcement
Overview Creative uses of information technology have the potential to increase the capacity and effectiveness of law enforcement in fulfilling its complex mission today - including increased demands in the post-September 11 world. Implementing such systems, however, involves a host of challenges, ranging from acceptance by established bureaucracies to privacy and security concerns to practical questions like how to pay for them. No technology provides magic tools for solving complicated problems like crime. But attention to the work of pioneers in the field - like the Chicago Police Department - can provide helpful guidance for policymakers as they consider moving ahead in this promising area.
