PRLog (Press Release) - Jan. 25, 2011 - HIGHLANDS RANCH, CO – The Santa Rosa Police Department, CA recently partnered with Bair Software to provide interactive crime mapping for their public through RAIDS Online (http://www.bairsoftware.com ).  RAIDS Online makes it easy for Santa Rosa residents to keep track of crime in their neighborhoods by displaying crimes on a map as they occur.  Residents can access the crime map from any location with internet access, including cell phones with internet browsing capabilities. The service also allows residents to sign up for customized email reports of the crime activity near their homes.
Citizens who use RAIDS Online to become aware of crime trends can make more informed decisions regarding where they live, shop, play, send their kids to school and other important choices regarding their personal safety.

Bair Software provides this service at no cost to the Santa Rosa Police Department or their citizens.

“We wanted to do something to help law enforcement in these tough economic times. We consider this a basic service that we are more than happy to provide to the public and our law enforcement friends,” says company founder, Sean Bair, a former police officer and crime analyst.

RAIDS Online syncs with the Santa Rosa Police Department’s records system to automatically upload crime information and keep it updated on the map. It uses Google Maps to display the location and basic information for crimes. Users can choose which crimes and date range are displayed on the map and can also view the data in an analytics dashboard which automatically updates when the user adjusts filters.  Residents can also stay informed about crime by signing up for crime activity reports that are conveniently emailed automatically on a daily, weekly or monthly schedule.
