Project poster

The UW Police mobile application prototype attempts to address missed opportunities for information sharing by creating an information portal, utilizing established lines of communication, to increase the accessibility of its resources. The app leverages the mobile platform, with software developed using open source tools, to provide public safety resources in a more user-friendly interface in an effort to develop a safer and more informed UW community. The objective is to enhance the efficiency with which the community engages with its Police and in that same token, increasing the UWPD's effectiveness in exchanging information with its community.
