ON DEMAND
When gunfire happens, officers often have to respond with limited information about what they may find when they arrive.
In Pueblo, just 17% of more than 3,300 ShotSpotter alerts over a two-year period were accompanied by a 911 call—leaving officers without caller-provided details about victims, suspects, vehicles, or conditions at the scene.
Join Pueblo Police Department, SoundThinking, and BRINC to learn how Pueblo PD is combining ShotSpotter, its Real-Time Crime Center, and Drone as First Responder (DFR) to help close that information gap.
You’ll hear how Pueblo’s RTCC evaluates gunfire alerts and deploys drones when appropriate, giving officers additional visual and thermal intelligence before and during their response.
You'll Learn
- How Pueblo PD connects gunfire detection, RTCC operations, and DFR
- How drones can help teams locate victims, track suspects, and identify evidence
- How added intelligence can improve situational awareness before officers arrive
- Practical considerations for agencies evaluating DFR as part of a real-time response strategy
See how Pueblo PD is using DFR to turn a gunfire alert into a clearer picture of what’s happening on scene.
