Looking at a Body Camera Initiative

Implementing body-worn cameras for your force brings many benefits. But getting started can raise a number of complex questions.

Can your current IT infrastructure

handle video and case management?

Do you have access to adequate

funding for this technology?

How do you interpret conflicting

information from many different

solution providers?

Is it cost-effective to use the cloud vs. your existing data

center space?

What timing makes the

most sense?

And a body camera deployment involves much more than just the cameras. There are many interconnected factors that also need to be considered.
