  • Data-Driven Optimization for Police Zone Design Arxiv:2104.00535V1
    Data-Driven Optimization for Police Zone Design Shixiang Zhu, He Wang, and Yao Xie H. Milton Stewart School of Industrial and Systems Engineering, Georgia Institute of Technology, Atlanta, Georgia 30332, USA Abstract We present a data-driven optimization framework for redesigning police patrol zones in an urban environment. The objectives are to rebalance police workload among geo- graphical areas and to reduce response time to emergency calls. We develop a stochastic model for police emergency response by integrating multiple data sources, including police incidents reports, demographic surveys, and traffic data. Using this stochastic model, we optimize zone redesign plans using mixed-integer linear programming. Our proposed design was implemented by the Atlanta Police Department in March 2019. By analyzing data before and after the zone redesign, we show that the new design has reduced the response time to high priority 911 calls by 5.8% and the imbalance of police workload among different zones by 43%. Keywords| police operations, data analytics, queueing model, optimization 1 Introduction In large urban areas, police departments often organize their patrol forces by dividing the geo- graphical region of a city into multiple patrol zones (also known as precincts), and each zone is further divided into multiple beats (or sectors)(Larson 1972). The design of patrol zones affects the demand and capacity for police services in each beat/zone, as well as the travel time of pa- trol units|together, these factors will determine the police's response time to emergency calls and arXiv:2104.00535v1 [math.OC] 30 Mar 2021 crime events. Therefore, a good design of patrol zones is important for achieving efficient police operations.

  • Breaking the Cycle of Repeat Offenders in Fulton County
    The Annual Report of the Atlanta Repeat Offender Commission October 4, 2019 OVERVIEW Crime in Atlanta often results from the repeated bad acts of a small number of individuals whose criminal histories are seemingly minimized by a court and probation system that quickly releases them from incarceration, whereupon the police arrest them again for newly committed crimes. Repeat Offenders are defined as persons who have three or more prior felony convictions. The leniency shown to these bad actors by the judicial system results in recidivistic crimes that prey on the public, often resulting in egregious injury or public fear by citizens and the neighborhoods who feel as if they’ve been terrorized. Regarding repeat offenders, the police do their detection job well. They know where the criminals live. They know where they commit their crimes. And they arrest and re-arrest these bad actors only to have these serial offenders sentenced to minimal incarceration, then freed to begin anew their criminal activity. • Why do the courts fail to incarcerate these felons? • Don’t law-abiding citizens deserve protection from serial felons? • Why are judges failing to incarcerate people who repeatedly choose to commit serious crimes? • Why do judges allow probation of persons, four-times convicted, who brazenly carry firearms despite prior convictions and in violation of law? The Atlanta Repeat Offenders Commission (AROC) was empaneled to examine the scope of this problem and offer recommendations to fix it. The AROC seeks to establish: • Greater awareness

  • Atlanta City Guide
    Atlanta City Guide Page | 1 Atlanta Atlanta at night Atlanta is the vanguard of the New South, with the charm and elegance of the Old. It is a city that balances southern traditions with sleek modernism. In Atlanta, the peach trees are plentiful and the tea is sweet, yet this city boasts three skylines and the world’s busiest airport. Atlanta has been burnt to the ground and built back up; it has seen the horrors of war and felt the pain of droughts and floods. Atlanta knows rebirth and endurance though, perhaps better than any other city. Atlanta was host to the 1996 Centennial Olympic Games, gave birth to the greatest figure of the civil rights movement, is the beloved capital of the state of Georgia, and has become the enduring leader of the American South. Districts The separated skyscrapers of Downtown, Midtown, and Buckhead make Atlanta’s three skylines, and the size of any one of these districts could rival the center of any other city in the South. Atlanta is not all high rises though; each of the city’s urban neighborhoods offer unique atmospheres that are well adapted to living in the shadow of the city. Downtown (Five Points, Centennial Park, Sweet Auburn, Hotel District, Castleberry Hill) The most central and commercial area in Georgia (economically and politically), downtown Atlanta includes the state capitol, city hall, the CNN Center, Georgia Aquarium and the New World of Coca-Cola Midtown (Midtown, Atlantic Station) Just North of Downtown, this is a major business and residential district with tall skyscrapers and a popular nightlife area.
