Police departments across the country are dreading a huge crime wave that may strike in January, 2021.
The truth on the streets won’t be changing. This feared new crime wave is a statistical one.
After the 2021 deadline, police departments will have to change how they report crime from the 111-year old Uniform Crime Reporting (UCR) to National Incident-Based Reporting System (NIBRS).
For example, if there is a murder and a rape, with UCR you just record the murder. With NIBRS, you record both crimes.
Back when UCR was devised in 1908, it was an analog time where all the numbers were crunched by hand. Today’s technology can handle all the crime data you can throw at it.
On this episode of the Pinpoint podcast, we do a deep dive into the changes police can expect from the NIBRS changeover.
We spoke with Ellie Bennett, a Product Manager at Mark 43, who also happens to be one of our in-house NIBRS experts.
