Louisville Jefferson County Metro, Kentucky, USA In 2003, the City of Louisville, Kentucky, and Jefferson County were merged into one, becoming Louisville Jefferson County Metro, one of the largest cities in America by population. Given the urgent need to develop interoperability for the Metro s first responders, Mayor Jerry Abramson initiated MetroSafe, a unified communications system for all emergency response agencies in the community, including police, fire, EMS, the Health Department, local hospitals, and others. To access and maintain accurate records, MetroSafe uses Intergraph s Law Enforcement Records Management solution. The system integrates directly with their Intergraph CAD system to record the details of police calls entered by call-takers or dispatchers. This information is automatically linked with appropriate case files in a centralized database. Using mobile technology, field officers can access the records database from their vehicles to review archived information relating to a case, address, or individual. Automated record reporting is really streamlining the process to where we have almost an entire unit of personnel free to do other policing-related activities, says Dana Spratt, service level manager for MetroSafe. 5
