The rise of real time crime centers (RTCC) marks a transformative shift in policing, moving from reactive to proactive operations. Using advanced technology like license plate readers, gunshot detection and surveillance cameras, RTCCs provide real-time data to officers on the ground, enhancing response times and safety.
Fort Worth’s RTCC has been instrumental in reducing crime since 2015, enabling officers to work smarter with community partnership at the forefront. By providing crucial intelligence during emergencies and complex incidents, RTCCs act as a force multiplier, ensuring both citizen and officer safety in the modern age of policing.
