Award Winning Seattle Common Operating Picture
The Seattle Police Department is Geneva's newest customer. The Common Operating Picture (COP) system brings together emergency response and resource information from police, fire, public utilities and transportation systems to provide Seattle Police Department and Seattle Fire Department personnel with a real-time, integrated view of incidents and resources - for the first time!
Seattle's COP system received the Government Security News 2012 award for Most Notable Municipal/County Security Program.

Unit data from Seattle Public Utilities (SPU) includes both water and wastewater and drainage units, along with their locations, brought to the COP system using Web Services.
