The York City Police Department, in partnership with CRIMEWATCH™, announce the release of a new crime mapping and analysis system that brings near real-time transparency to police incident responses.

CRIMEWATCH™ developed a comprehensive crime mapping and analysis tool that empowers residents to monitor and understand crime activity in their local vicinity. All access is free and community members can sign up to receive notifications for activity from the police department.

Residents can view the York City Police Department crime map by visiting the department’s CRIMEWATCH web portal at www.yorkcitypolice.com and then clicking the “CRIME MAP” button (top right) in the main menu. Or using this link: https://labs.crimewatch.net/#lat=39.9603&lon=-76.7285&zoom=13&layers=0

While browsing the crime map, viewers can filter by incident type and sort by date. With the map controls, viewers can change the map style, enable heat mapping, view individual incident details, and view in multiple languages.
