Download or read book Two Patrol Car Deployment Models written by Jan M. Chaiken and published by . This book was released on 1980 with total page 12 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1975, Rand made available two computer programs for analyzing deployment of police patrol cars: the Patrol Car Allocation Model (PCAM) and the Hypercube Model. PCAM is used primarily to determine the total number of patrol cars a department needs and how they should be allocated over days of the week, hours of the day, and geography. The Hypercube Model is used primarily for designing patrol beats (the areas covered by one car). Both of these models were specifically designed to serve the needs of local police agencies with little or no outside technical assistance. The documentation for each includes a nontechnical executive summary that explains the kinds of applications for which the model is suitable, a user's manual that describes step-by-step how to operate the computer program once it is installed on a computer system, and a program description that provides information for data-processing personnel to install the model, construct a data base, and modify the model if needed. When the models were new, the designers undertook several field test in which they worked closely with police agencies to refine both the models and the methods of applying them. However, after publication of the documentation in 1975, Rand assistance to users has been limited. The designers have provided copies of the computer programs, fixed a few errors in the programs, responded to user inquiries, and provided advice to organizations that included the models in their training program.

Book excerpt: This report discusses resource allocation issues that affect patrol operations and demonstrates some of the mechanisms available for resolving them. The authors suggest that managers use the report to select the method most suited to their department's situation. Specifically, the report focuses on calculating the number of patrol officers needed to satisfy departmental service-delivery objectives and distributing those personnel across shifts and geographic boundaries. The report's five chapters are organized to guide the reader through the processes involved in patrol planning, from issue development through the resolution of single and multiple issues and modification of the patrol plan. Also addressed are the concept and benefits of patrol planning, fundamentals of analyzing a patrol plan, analytical techniques, and key planning steps for resolving resource allocation issues. Exhibits and tables are included. Additional sources of information are appended.

Download or read book Lethal Force and New Zealand Police written by Richard S. Shortt and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2022-08-22 with total page 253 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book challenges the notion that the New Zealand Police are one of only four global police services that does not have routinely armed officers, using arguments and facts drawn from 2000 to 2019, a period of important change for the organisation and its relationship with firearms, particularly following the outrages of the Christchurch mosques terrorist massacres in 2019, and the 2020 shooting death of a young police constable in Aotearoa New Zealand. This book provides a brief history of the Police from its beginnings to the present day with a specific focus on its relationship with firearms, which contextualize the law that justifies use of lethal force in a country that has abolished the death penalty. It examines police policies, procedures, training and structures governing deployment and use of firearms in Aotearoa New Zealand, and the independent oversight that now applies to fatal and non-fatal shootings by Police. Using 43 publicly released oversight agency reports and data directly related to police shootings, such as who is being shot, this book investigates how the police are using lethal force, who is being affected, and what this might mean for the service with regards to the operational deployment of firearms and the potential for use of lethal force within the community into the future.
