SoundThinking Announces ResourceRouter Community - Technology to Empower Violence Prevention Strategies
August 10 2023 - 8:30AM
SoundThinking, Inc. (Nasdaq: SSTI) (formerly
ShotSpotter, Inc.), a leading public safety technology company that
combines data-driven solutions and strategic advisory services for
law enforcement and community assistance groups, today announced
the launch of ResourceRouter Community. This new application,
tightly integrated with ShotSpotter, the leading gunshot detection
solution, will support social service and community violence
intervention (CVI) organizations in their efforts to optimize their
resource deployments, reduce violent crime, improve public safety
and increase community trust.
Miami-Dade Police Department (MDPD) in Florida will be among the
first to deploy ResourceRouter Community as part of its
holistic crime prevention strategy in partnership with Ummah
Futures International, a community violence prevention organization
and SoundThinking Data for Good partner. MDPD has successfully
deployed other SoundThinking solutions, including ShotSpotter,
which helps direct first responders to gunfire incidents in real
time to save lives. Together, Ummah Futures and MDPD will leverage
the technology to help deliver critical resources and services to
residents more effectively and efficiently.
ResourceRouter Community is an advanced software application
that utilizes a data-driven approach to identify community “hot
spots” where crime is prevalent, allowing violence interrupters and
social service workers to more efficiently determine where they are
needed most. ResourceRouter Community enables organizations to take
a more proactive approach that maximizes their presence and impact,
while reducing ineffective gut-based interventions.
“We’re thrilled to announce the launch of ResourceRouter
Community,” said Ralph Clark, CEO of SoundThinking, Inc. “This
technology exemplifies the type of advanced, data-driven tools that
make up the SafetySmart™ platform and expands SoundThinking’s
mission to create safer neighborhoods and save lives, beyond
assisting law enforcement. We’re proud to play a key role in
fostering collaboration, empowering community organizations and
protecting our cities.”
Upon entering a defined area, ResourceRouter Community presents
users with a comprehensive pre-engagement briefing, outlining
recent crime in the area and suggesting engagement options. After
the engagement, CVI workers can log observations and planned
interventions or activities, which are automatically compiled for
administrative staff. From a management perspective, this
information can then be used to ascertain a worker’s presence and
time spent on incidents and identify the most optimal deployment of
limited people resources.
“With ResourceRouter Community, we’re able to direct violence
interrupters and other social services into communities instead of
solely relying on police patrols,” said Wayne Rawlins, President of
Ummah Futures International. “That means greater accountability on
our part because we can see where workers are and how long they’ve
been there. We want to make a positive impact, and this allows our
workers to get credit for the work they do.”
