Crime Analysis
The members of the Crime Analysis Unit are dedicated to providing support for the tactical, strategic and administrative needs of the police department and the community. They utilize the most current technology and methods available to collect, process and communicate information related to police calls for service and criminal activities in the community. The unit members use a variety of computer hardware and software systems as tools to aid in this process.

The focus of the unit is to provide timely and accurate information to support the tactical decisions and needs of the police department, while also supporting the other departmental needs. The analysts are assigned geographically to each of the four patrol districts and to assist Criminal Investigations. The Crime Analysis members are currently involved in several projects to enhance their ability to track and analyze the crime trends and patterns that occur within the city. The enhancements will provide valuable aid in  support of community policing activities, crime prevention and awareness, patrol activities, and investigations.  The Crime Analysis Unit maintains an information website dedicated to providing citizens with current information. It includes calls for service and crimes for the entire city, most frequent intersection-related accident locations, junior high and high school crime, Uniform Crime Report totals, and calls for service to multi-housing facilities.  Visit the Crime Analysis website at www.Mesaaz.gov/police/crime_analysis/default.aspx.
