Why does CopTrax cost less than other police video systems?
CopTrax makes use of existing technologies and hardware by
running on the laptop already in many Law Enforcement vehicles.
In this way the most expensive portion of the hardware (DVR) can
be eliminated, meaning less hardware in the vehicle, less components
to fail, less hardware to install, less to maintain, and "0" chance of DVR obsolescence as the conventional DVR has been completly
eliminated.
Geocasting
MVS and our partners have been at the forefront of developing real
world Geocasting applications over the past two years. From its
inception, we have been disseminating into vertical markets. This
Geocasting technology is currently being used as a state-of-the-art
Driver Training Device (DTD) to encourage driver safety as well as
Eco-Drive awareness in large commercial fleets. By monitoring
driving activity in these large fleets it promotes proper driving
techniques that can significantly reduce fuel costs, maximize
M.P.G., and reduce accidents fleet wide thus saving valuable
company resources and liability risk.
Geocasting has extremely important implications for First
Responders. Now Live video information can be seen in real
time which greatly enhances Situational Awareness by Law
enforcement, Fire fighters, and Emergency Medical Technicians.
Much of the emphasis of this Geocasting software has centered
around public safety but there are literally thousands of applications
that can, and ultimately will, be able to benefit from this unique
solution.

Geo-Fencing With Border Violation Alerts
RFXP® (Request for Extra Patrol) Validation
Common requests from prominent corporate, commercial or
residential concerns in your area are often made for increased Law
Enforcement Request for Extra Patrol visits, Business Park patrols,
Neighborhood patrols, Commercial Business security checks after
hours, Commercial requests for on site visits after recent crime
activities, or residents that simple feel less threatened when the
police pass their homes.
The visionary development team "across the pond" at CopTrax,
now provide a mechanism that can provide an E-mail to those
requesting this additional level of support when requested. The
benefit to Law Enforcement is twofold;
These E-mails generated by the CopTrax system, validate that the
officer has acted in response to their request providing the requested
additional level of Law Enforcement presence at their commercial
facility, business, neighborhood or home.
This mechanism can be employed to continually provide a high level
of corporate, business and public awareness of the high level of
dedication and responsiveness that the current administration at
their Law Enforcement department or agency provides.
Whether Chiefs or Sheriffs are elected or appointed, is not as
important as the degree to which those supporting, campaigning or
voting for them believe they have found the person most responsive
and concerned with their public safety needs.
It is in the best interest of every appointed or elected Law
Enforcement Administrator to have this tool of corporate and public
opinion validation to the high level of service your department of
agency actually provides those served.

department instantly on an easy to read map. This provides critical
support to dispatchers and fleet managers. The refresh rate can be
adjusted between every 10 seconds or every 3 minutes. Never wonder
where an officer is again.
Droid Smartphone Accessory Optional
The CopTrax mobile application is a dynamic web-based software
that instantly reports global position and turns every officers Motorola
Droid Smartphone into a body-worn mobile digital video recorder.
Start and stop recording with your Bluetooth ear piece plus transmit
images back to the station in real time. This is not the primary vehicle
high resolution camera, this simple permits the officer to have a mobile
real time Live View accessory to the system.
Powerful Video Evidence
CopTrax documents all audio and video incidents helping to eliminate
false accusations, frivolous law suites and agency liability. CopTrax
audio/video evidence increases the likelihood of successful prosecution,
reduces the court appearance time for officers and reduces the time
spent on written reports. CopTrax is a powerful public relations tool to
improve the community and media perception of the law enforcement
agency. Video evidence is a great way to enhance training (Post
Incident use of Video), and improve officer performance and
professionalism.
CopTrax Software
CopTrax uses a web-based application, allowing it to be accessed from
any internet device with a browser. Use CopTrax from your desktop
computer, laptop, smart phone, or PDA. Video status updates and
reports can additionally be sent via E-mail. Multiple access permission
schemes are possible for security. User access can be controlled by
an administrator to read-only or completely restricted.
Report Feature
The CopTrax is more than just a state of the art mobile video solution,
it offers another data management tool in the area of evidence
tagging, where the officer has the ability to define the type of incident
and "tag" the event or incident for future search, review or report
generation. This is essential in reduction of time spent in documenting
and reviewing the events for future prosecution, as well as building a
geo database of incidents that can then be extrapolated to benefit the
law enforcement agencies in an effort tot highlight hot spotted for
particular criminal violations, that may require additional law
enforcement presence or visibility, over areas not affected by higher
rates of these incidents.
Report Types
In order to permit expeditious and intuitive use of the system at the
officer entry level, the developers added simple pull down menus with
common classifications of incident types. By addition of this simple
menu, a mechanism was set in place that now permits higher-level
management the ability to search and review by those incident types.
Traffic, Larceny, All Other, Death Inv., Sexual Assault, Robbery,
Assault, Burglary, Felony Theft, Traffic Citation.
Video File Comments
Why waste time watching 15 different video files to determine which
one had the incident you wanted on it, when you could simply take 2
minutes and read the comments to learn what each video incident had
on it?
Another added value of using an intelligent solution provided from our
friends across the pond is the ability to attach comments to a video
file. Officer comments can be added to the Incident Report, that in the
future may be important additional information in a future prosecution,
or may expedite a search for a particular case file years ago after
many of the other details have changed but the officer remembers a
defining detail he logged in the comments.
Crime Mapping via Data Points
An added benefit of having CopTrax, the interactive Real Time Law
Enforcement Mobile Video solution is the fact that all events/incidents
are Geo tagged by their data points. In other words, all incidents are
not only documented by video, their location is logged and embedded
into the video file as another means of data sorting or management.
It is possible to chart all incidents Data Points on a map and provide
a visual representation of where recent crimes are most frequent.
Incident Type data are color coded, this can quickly provide a visual
representation on a map of the area of concern and show all incidents
that have occurred in those are over the selected dates, as well as
provide a color coded indication of what type of incident this may have
been.

Video Loss in Accidents
A conventional hard drive in a video system can survive about 3 "G"s, which explains why so many of them crash the hard drive when the bus hits a large bump, big pothole, storm curb or other object even at slow speeds.
When you are purchasing a video system to protect your district /agency from liability and act as an expert witness in the worst case scenarios, it seems a wise idea to make sure the one you invest into, will not fail you when you need it most, such as in the case of a bad accident.
This is the type of decision that separates those of vision and career advancement from those who might look back in hindsight after losing the lawsuit due to a failed hard drive system that was damaged in the crash.
Law Enforcement offers are occasionally involved in severe vehicle crashes, much in excess of 10+ "G"s that will often leave the in vehicle recording system inoperative when the fragile hard drive crashes. What is often lost is the entire pursuit of a perpetrator, including possible additional traffic violations, enforcement obstruction such as evidence tossed out the windows, possible aggravated assault in the case of shots fiord at the officers
.
The loss of this Priceless Video Evidence in a vehicle crash that may end the pursuit, is not only unacceptable but preventable.
With CopTrax the Priceless Video Evidence is constantly transmitted in Real Time to the Windows/Azure Cloud or to an on site server should the department wish to host the server themselves.
Redundant Download Data Security
In the past several different makes and models of conventional hard drive based DVRs have been offered that incorporated the use of removable memory storage devices that required the user to remove the solid state SD card and use it for downloading the data into a customer PC.
Recent incidents have been brought to our attention by customers where the SD card was "damaged or missing" preventing the customer from the valuable video evidence they invested in, casting shadows on the process they incorporate for video file security and serious doubts on those involved in the process who may have a potential conflict of interest.
- Cloud Redundant File Security
When customers choose to incorporate the Microsoft /Azure Cloud network storage, they receive a added level of data redundancy and evidence integrity with their built in process for insuring security.
- On Site Server
Departments and agencies who choose to manage their data and storage on their site will also receive the additional data security of the video storage on their laptops.
Levels of Oversight Provided By "Active Mobile Video"
Active Mobile Video systems provide multiple levels of management oversight from simply reminding the driver they are doing something unsafe to alerting management and opening a Live View with 2-Way communication.
Active Geo-Fencing Border Violation Alerts
This is a built in feature of the CopTrax innovative design that adds value to those fleet applications where patrol areas or jurisdiction boundaries are relevant to the performance of their duties.
- Active Hi-Speed Pursuit Alerts
This is a built in GPS feature of the CopTrax innovative design that adds value by letting dispatch or supervision know when a CopTrax equipped vehicle enters a potentially dangerous hi-speed pursuit, by exceeding the speed threshold for routine safe operation.
- Live View, E-mail / SMS Alerts to Dispatch or Network Operator
The next level of oversight provided will be alerts to the Network Operator, so they may now be aware of the incident the officer is involved in.
The International Association of Chiefs of Police
has published a document to assist others in the law enforcement community with regard to:
In-Car Video Camera Systems Performance Specifications:
Digital Video Systems Module
As Section 3 - Officer/Occupant Safety was the first issue to be addressed by the IACP's specification,
it follows that officer /Occupant safety is paramount in any new technology-installed into a police vehicle.
As such it should be noted that there are several Officer / Occupant Safety related aspects of the new
Mobile Video concerned with Officer / Occupant Safety when looking for a mobile video system for their
police car fleet.
1. Would it enhance the safety of the Officer and or Occupant, if there were a automatic means to immediately notify the CMS operator
or Dispatcher in case of severe vehicle impact or crash, even if the officer was unable to respond or unconscious?
2. Would it enhance the safety of the Officer and or Occupant, if there were an automatic means to immediately notify the CMS operator
or Dispatcher when the blue lights are activated or the Hi-Speed pursuit speed threshold is exceeded by an officer in pursuit?
3. Would it enhance the safety of the Officer and or Occupant, if there were a built in means to immediately open a 2-way voice
communication between the officer and the CMS operator or Dispatcher in case of emergency response required, when normal
communication method is non operational?
4. Would it enhance the safety of the Officer and or Occupant, if there were a built in means to immediately transmit video data files
during an emergency event so supervisors can immediately view the event and instruct the officer how to respond to the event in real time?
5. Would it enhance the safety of the Officer and or Occupant, if there were a built in means to immediately permit supervisors to receive
visual status on officer physical condition during and after an event, in case signs of extreme stress, physical injury and or fatigue require
relief or medical assistance to that officer?
6. Would it enhance the safety of the Officer and or Occupant, if there were a built in means to immediately alert CMS operator / dispatch
when a patrol vehicle exceeds the Geo Boundaries, in cases when officers might be hostages in their own vehicles?
7. Would it enhance the safety of the Officer and or Occupant, if there were a built in means to immediately permit the CMS operator /
Dispatch to speak directly to the person who is holding the officer hostage, so that the immediate knowledge of the video evidence of their
face (transmitted via 3G live) and the fact help is on the way might permit the CMS operator or Dispatcher to talk the perpetrator down before
the officers life is taken?
8. Would it enhance the safety of the Officer and or Occupant, if there were a built in means to immediately locate the officers vehicle in
cases where the officer fails to check in?
9. Would it enhance the safety of the Officer and or Occupant, if there were a means to immediately let CMS operator or dispatcher know
in case of severe vehicle impact or crash by E-mail to their PDA or Blackberry device?
10. Would it enhance the safety of the Officer and or Occupant, if the CMS operator or dispatcher could visually monitor potentially
dangerous stops made by patrol officer, so another set of eyes can watch the stop and immediately send assistance if needed?
11. Would it enhance the safety of the Officer and or Occupant, if the CMS operator or dispatcher could become an active participant in
supporting a fellow officer who might need support by watching their back and warning them through the Droid optional system when
passengers exit the vehicle out of their line of sight to try to get behind them?
In Summary it is clear all law enforcement could substantially and immediately enhance Officer / Occupant Safety by exploring some of the
new 3G/4G technology mechanisms to greatly increase the safety of law enforcement officers with existing technology in CopTrax mobile
video system products that can offer the benefits with a lower hardware cost than the most common systems now offered in the law
enforcement marketplace.
There is no reason to send officers into a hostile world without equipment that can save their lives when they can have the immediate backup
of 3G/4G Live View and live event alerts provided by the new CopTrax based systems from Mobile Video Systems.
