GEORGIA DDACTS WORKSHOP AUGUST 4, 2009 Col. Ken Morckel (ret) DDACTS “If you’re not keeping score, it’s just practice.” Data-Driven Approaches to Crime and Traffic Safety DDACTS is an operational model that uses the integration of locationbased crime and traffic data to establish effective and efficient methods for deploying law enforcement and other resources DDACTS Goal Reduce the incidence of crime, crashes and traffic violations in a community Reduces Social Harm DDACTS Advantages Collaborative Effort Grounded in Community-Oriented Policing Evidence Based Problem-Solving Provides Focused Area for Enforcement Ensures Accountability Applies High Visibility Enforcement Fewer Ethical and Legal Concerns National Organization of Black Law Enforcement Executives “If the data analysis reveals that criminal activity and traffic crashes occur at a specific place within a community, then it is at that place that law enforcement activities need to be focused. A non-biased, data-driven approach to crime and traffic safety delivers law enforcement services at the right place and at the right time. To insure fairness and consistency, the approach must be uniform throughout the agency.” Joseph A.
