Project Sigaw: A Community-based Incident Reporting and Mapping using Google Maps

2019

Community awareness plays a vital role in community development. In order to maintain awareness and address untoward incidents, a strong collaboration between authorities and its community should be built. This study presents the development of a community-based incident reporting and mapping system that serves as a tool for disseminating relevant public information, manage and monitor incident data, and visualize significant occurrences through geographical mapping and reporting using Google Maps Application Programming Interface (API). The method involves data visualization utilizing reverse geocoding approach to convert geographic coordinates to its actual city address and street names to display incident data markers on maps. Furthermore, to strengthen community engagement, the system provides functionality that enables individuals to confirm certain incident in their area allowing government agencies to monitor the validity of the incident. Results showed that city officials an...

Using Google Maps to Track Down Suspects in a Criminal Investigation

Procedia Computer Science, 2019

Cyber services record almost people's locations worldwide. Law Enforcement Agencies (LEAs) can use them to find suspects or witnesses near crime scenes. However, it runs the risk of arresting the innocent in a criminal investigation. This paper takes an intimidation case in Taiwan for example. The crime scene investigation from the viewpoint of Google Maps is explored for supporting or refuting a crime. The proposed PETLO (People-Events-Time-Locations-Objects) model is an investigative approach, which can be applied in clarifying some critical issues and explaining how a crime has happened.

CrimeID: Towards Crime Prevention and Community Safety in Indonesia using Mobile and Web Technology

International Journal of Interactive Mobile Technologies (iJIM), 2019

The rate of crime incidence in Indonesia is quite high. Some efforts to prevent crime and to create community safety have been already conducted. However, the information technology has not been implemented yet. CrimeID could be a technology tool for both individual and collective crime prevention. The citizen could participate individually as a crowd to annotate the crime data from news article through the crowdsourcing platform using gamification concept. The collected data could be used to raise the awareness among community members of the crime that happens surrounding them by using the location-aware system.

Online Crime Reporting System Project

Social Science Research Network, 2024

The objective is to design and develop an application that will help to imp rove the efficiency and effectiveness of the police security measures in keeping criminal records. ABSTRACT The victims can file the FIR through the website under various sections. The user can send photo evidence if any online. There will be an 'SOS 'capability in which, the user can press a button and his/her location will be sent to the nearest Police station. There will be a separate component for the accident victims so that FIR can be registered fast and treatment can be started as soon as possible. In this current system, user's information will be kept confidential and only users complain will be forwarded to its nearest police station. Users complain number will be forwarded from the server side automatically. For identifying location and authentic person, concept of cookies and IP addressing has been used. To eliminate the location conflicts between police station, server will play a vital role. It will search the address table using IP address and forward message to that police location from where the message has been received. We intend to create a project which will help bridge the gap between the police department and the common man. 'Online FIR Registration and SOS system' project will have an app from where the users can file FIR against the offender under the various sections. The main site will be maintained by the admin (from the police) who will then notify the user if the FIR has been registered and the necessary action has been taken.

EYES ON THE STREET: A REAL-TIME REPORTING APP FOR IMPROVED PUBLIC SAFETY 1

SADI International Journal of Science, Engineering and Technology, 2024

In recent years, there has been a growing demand for innovative solutions to enhance public safety and bridge the gap between citizens and law enforcement agencies. "Eyes on the Street" addresses this need by introducing a real-time reporting app designed to empower citizens to report crimes they witness firsthand, thereby facilitating quicker response times and more efficient crime management. The web-based application provides a user-friendly interface that is accessible to anyone with internet connectivity. Using HTML, CSS, Bootstrap, JavaScript, PHP/Laravel, and MySQL database technologies, the system allows users to submit detailed accounts of the incidents they observed, including descriptions and relevant multimedia evidence. Key features include streamlined reporting processes, secure data transmission, and administrative oversight for verifying and responding to reports. Administrators, typically representing law enforcement or crime control agencies, have access to a dashboard where they can review incoming reports, verify their authenticity, and take appropriate actions. Eyes on the Street aims to create safer environments and enhance public trust in law enforcement efforts by harnessing the collective vigilance of citizens and fostering closer collaboration between communities and crime control agencies. This research contributes to the evolving landscape of civic technology by leveraging digital platforms to empower individuals and strengthen the fabric of public safety.
