How does it work?  Crime data is extracted from each participating department’s record system (in our local case, the Los Angeles County Sheriff and Pasadena Police Departments) to ensure that the information is the most current available.  CrimeMapping.com’s data is always verified for accuracy and addresses are generated by block to ensure privacy.

The Omega Group has been working with law enforcement agencies throughout North America since 1992. Hundreds of police and sheriff’s departments are currently using one of their desktop or Web-based CrimeView solutions for their intelligence led policing needs. CrimeMapping.com represents our nationwide public service. We understand the sensitive nature of crime data and work hard to maintain integrity as well as security with every solution we provide.

The Altadena Crime Map will be available on its own page.  As presented, it will map out the previous week’s worth of reported crimes, but readers can also go in and make their own changes, i.e. date range and types of crime.  There are also smartphone apps available.
