Abstract

Monitoring Events in the City of Chicago using GIS
Track: Law Enforcement and Criminal Justice
Authors: Joe Kezon

The city has used the ESRI technology including Portal, Geoevent, WebApp Builder and Ops Dashboard to create, manage and monitor events. Police, Fire and 911 have the ability to use web maps to edit and maintain data for the event. Geoevent is used to bring in 911 and GPS and is used to filter data inside the event footprint and send out alerts. Geoforms are used to enter information for the event. All the information is neatly packaged into an Operations Dashboard and WebApp Builder interface.
