Coplogic is one of the most effective new systems that we actually have with online
reporting to do better service for our citizens and our community.
And what we’ve done is to allow folks to actually log in from home to the Seattle Police
Department website and to report an incident that happened to them.
What it allows is that person to be able to do it in their own timely manner to log in,
give us that information and file that police report.
What happens with that then is we have an officer review that, make sure that it’s
full, it’s thorough, it’s got what we need and complete.
They are treated just as a regular police report, so, once we’ve gathered that information,
they are protected.
What it saves is that officer going out there, taking that report, and then coming back.
And, in fact, what we looked at when we’re looking at the data through using these online
reporting tools, we are saving over 20 thousand hours that the officers would be out there
taking up that time to do these initial reports.
Coplogic is harnessing technology to make us work smarter, to do better service for
our citizens and our community.
