Motorola Solutions moves further into big data

Motorola Solutions has announced that it is partnering with Wynyard Group to integrate next-generation crime analytics into the company’s Intelligence-Led Public Safety platform to enable agencies of all sizes to share data and solve crime with fewer resources.

Motorola said that such software solutions help identify criminal patterns and explore relationships by analysing data in minutes rather than days, freeing up agency resources to investigate leads and solve cases.

Increased data from video, social media and other sources has public safety turning to advanced technology to help make data actionable for faster-than-ever crime detection, prevention and resolution.

Earlier this year, Motorola Solutions acquired PublicEngines and its CommandCentral Predictive and CommandCentral Analytics products to expand its innovative Smart Public Safety Solutions.

The Wynyard Group software enhances CommandCentral by ‘connecting the dots’ between multiple databases and evidence libraries to help investigators quickly prevent and solve crime.

“The acquisitions, partnerships and investments Motorola Solutions continues to make this year are significantly strengthening our customers’ ability to prevent, detect and solve crimes with more information at their fingertips than ever before,” said Bob Schassler, executive vice president, Motorola Solutions.

“Motorola Solutions’ Smart Public Safety Solutions and Wynyard Group’s analytics software will help public safety quickly gain actionable intelligence from an increasing volume of available data.”

Motorola will offer the capabilities as a software as a service (SaaS) solution.

“Wynyard Group provides advanced crime analytics solutions to national security and large law enforcement agencies around the world,” said Craig Richardson, chief executive officer, Wynyard Group.

“The partnership with Motorola Solutions creates new capabilities to help law enforcement identify persons, relationships and events of interest and provide a single view of the criminal environment to help stop criminals and protect victims.”
