Systems, Methods, and Computer Program for Monitoring Crime Activity and Dissemination of Crime Related Information and Alerts Over a Multi-User Network

Abstract

A system and method that allows Law enforcement to communicate quickly and efficiently with businesses and business owners. Businesses first create a profile at a website. The profile includes address, contact information, secondary contact information, alarm company name and number and information about the type of business. Detectives have the ability to send email and electronic messages to electronic devices alerting businesses, their owners and their employees about crime that affects them. Detectives can select different types of businesses, businesses within a certain range or businesses that have certain characteristics, like handle a lot of cash. Additionally detectives have the ability to look up information about a specific business, for example at three AM when the window is broken, and they need someone to come take care of the mess, or retrieve information about a group of businesses, like the names and numbers of all pawn shops within five miles.

Dependencies are inferred from the claim text.
