Cleveland Police Are Seeing and Believing with Motorola Solutions’ Advanced Video Surveillance

Helping to save lives, improving officer safety and increasing
effectiveness are just a few of the reasons the city of Cleveland
turned to Motorola Solutions, Inc. (NYSE: MSI) to upgrade its
security. Video surveillance is transforming the way first
responders react to an emergency situation and helping keep cities
safe. The Cleveland Shared Security Surveillance (CS3) program is a
public-private partnership that allows security cameras to stream
real-time information back to a police command vehicle, Emergency
Operations Center (EOC) and, as the program expands, to a dispatch
center.
Cleveland’s project started in 2007 with a small wireless build
and has evolved into a phased-in system that includes command
vehicles, wireless cameras, incident correlation, wireless
broadband integration, managed video services and more. Working
with Motorola’s integrated services experts, Cleveland officials
are expanding their video system to act as a crime deterrent. The
forensic evidence gathered from the system has already helped
Cleveland police solve crimes.
An International Association of Chiefs of Police (IACP) study
has shown that 93 percent of officer misconduct charges are
overturned by video evidence, and other research shows a majority
of defendants plead out when their activities are captured on
video. Motorola’s advanced video solutions allow first responders
to view real-time, 24/7 visuals of their communities. They are
given immediate access to view commercial districts, neighborhoods,
high-risk areas, crowded public events, dangerous intersections,
public transit vehicles and municipal buildings when they’re not
physically on the scene. Live, mobile video streaming from the
scene back to the command center or eventually to hand-held devices
– such as Motorola’s LEX 700 Mission Critical Handheld – enhances
coordination of efforts from all officers and response teams.
KEY FACTS
- Funding from the Department of Homeland
Security and other federal organizations has allowed the CS3
program to support 25 city-owned cameras and dozens of other
cameras owned by local organizations, businesses and other public
safety agencies.
- Cleveland’s cameras can tilt, pan and
zoom in on a particular area to follow the activities of an ongoing
situation or help predict a dangerous situation before it
happens.
- Motorola’s video system allows an
emergency responder in distress to press an emergency button on his
or her radio that triggers an alarm at the dispatch center. The
system then identifies neighboring cameras and directs them to the
responder’s coordinates.
- Motorola’s deep domain expertise in
public safety allows for a community’s video solution to grow from
specifically selected areas where video is a proven deterrent to
“safe corridor” implementations for broader city-wide
coverage.
SUPPORTING QUOTES
Martin Flask, public safety director, city of
Cleveland
“The Cleveland community has benefitted directly from our work
with Motorola Solutions. The video solutions project creates a
sense of awareness and a feeling of safety, especially in the
high-traffic areas such as our downtown business district and
sporting arenas.”
Michael McGrath, police chief, city of Cleveland
“One of the most important aspects of the video solution project
has been the preventative component. Individuals know the cameras
are there, and that can prevent crime and tragedies from occurring.
I don’t want to catch the person who stole the purse…I want to
prevent the purse from being stolen in the first place.”
Bruce Brda, vice president of Global Solutions and Services,
Motorola Solutions
“Video solutions are transforming how public safety workers
respond to a critical situation without compromising their safety
and effectiveness. The city of Cleveland has been a perfect example
of how we can work with our customers to create a vision for the
ultimate goal they are looking to accomplish.”
