App #1:Atlanta Police DepartmentLinks to an external site.

This ArcGIS dashboard allows you to use tools to filter dates and times, crime types, areas of the city, and if there is a firearm involved. As you filter using those tools, the map changes, as well as the numbers on the right side. You also have a table at the bottom, and if you change the tabs and the very bottom, you can see the crimes by day, by watch, or get individual crime counts.
