Are there any issues I should keep in mind when checking Public CADmine data?
Public CADmine reports detail Computer Aided Dispatch (CAD) calls for service data. CAD call-type data is NOT the same as reported crime data. There may be more than one call for service for any given incident within these reports (e.g., several observers may call 911 after witnessing a motor vehicle accident, disturbance or serious criminal incident). Some call types (e.g., murder, kidnapping, robbery) may include “courtesy call” information from other law enforcement agencies (e.g., a call detailing information pertaining to a homicide suspect from another jurisdiction may be received locally and added to the “murder” call type). Finally, CAD calls-for-service do not always equate to a criminal incident resulting in a report or arrest, with many calls relating to non-criminal or quality of life issues. Does Public CADmine have a DISCLAIMER? Yes. Disclaimer: The information displayed on this website is susceptible to some degree of error due to the collection, entry, and geoprocessing
