Data warehouse will enable federal
crime busters to view police information
By Michael Keating
Just like on the TV crime shows—in which the “CSI” crew
seamlessly and instantly taps into a galaxy of crime data—police
agencies in the United States are setting up a domestic intelligence
system through a web of computer networks. The system will analyze vast
amounts of police information to fight terror and ferret out all types
of crime.
