投资支持警察采购

Between 2010 and 2019, UK police budgets were cut by 19% – but crime figures didn’t drop accordingly. So although new technology continually emerges to help police forces collect, preserve and present evidence, they’re continually being asked to do more with less. That’s why we’ve created a package of support designed to help police forces access data capture equipment, and to get up to speed with it as quickly and cost-effectively as possible.

我们的法医和碰撞调查的英国公共安全负责人迈克·斯基科（Mike Skicko）表示：“我们都依靠警察能够做到最好的工作 - 无论是解决犯罪还是处理道路交通碰撞。”“这些都是艰难的工作，因此我们希望通过提供可以在法庭上依靠的准确的3D现实捕获信息来使其尽可能容易地实现正确的结果。”

如今，Leica Geosystems与参与犯罪现场和碰撞调查的多个机构紧密合作，包括英国各地的警察部队，NPCC，交通事故研究所，特许法医学研究所，法医碰撞调查以及各种法医碰撞调查，以及第三方技术提供商。我们提供的支持包括：

“Leica Geosystems give us an excellent service – and their support has genuinely been exemplary. They respond quickly to any problems and have been able to provide next-day loan equipment when ours has been away or out of action.”
– Inspector Richard Auty, Metropolitan Police Road & Transport Policing Command

对警务需求的深刻理解

除了与警务组织紧密合作外，我们的团队还包括来自世界各地的前警察和顾问。我们与警察部队进行的持续对话确保我们了解他们不断发展的需求。

“The police need to complete very specific tasks quickly but thoroughly, so we focus on speed and simplicity,” said César Almeida, one of our reality-capture specialists. “The RTC360 scanner has a single button, for example, and we strip anything out of the workflow and training which the police force doesn’t need. And our experience means we can suggest applications that they may not have considered, helping them get the best possible value from our technology.”

当一支部队取得联系时，我们会花时间真正了解他们的需求和挑战，我们将全天派遣三人组成的演示设备，以便我们回答他们的所有问题。该团队包括Mike Skicko，CésarAlmeida和Geomatics Market Segment Segment Mark Francis。

Our free annual two-day policing conference is a chance to get hands-on with the latest Leica equipment, listen to guest speakers, and hear the innovative ways in which police forces use our equipment to crack cases and respond to incidents. In 2020, the event attracted 104 people from 30 policing organisations, providing a forum for sharing knowledge, ideas and best practice.

Leica Geosystems is working closely with the FCIN and the Chartered Society of Forensic Sciences (CSFS) to support police forces in meeting the challenge of achieving this accreditation. Dr Anya Hunt, CEO of the CSFS, commented that “Leica Geosystems very much appears to be ahead of the curve at the moment in their understanding of the need for validation and verification.”

“Leica Geosystems is one of the main suppliers of scanning technology to policing… They have lots of technology and people who really understand the process. They can guide the police through some of the difficult areas where we perhaps don’t have the expertise. They’ve been very generous and hugely supportive with the method validation work that we're undertaking.”
– Frances Senior, NPCC capability manager for forensic collision investigation

We pride ourselves on building a rapport with policing customers, and do our best to ensure officers can deal with the same person when they call. “When you’re already stressed out about a problem, there’s nothing worse than having to tell your story three times to three different people. Policing is tough enough; we’re here to make things a little easier,” says Nicolette Beggache, technical specialist and trainer at Leica Geosystems.

“By getting to know each force’s unique workflow, we can recommend the simplest, fastest way to get things done. We create a process that’s fit for purpose for each force, then follow it up with training that exactly matches it. This means officers can go from scene to screen in the shortest time possible.”

每年，Leica Geosystems都会赞助交通事故研究所的ITAI崩溃测试和研究日。2019年，超过420名代表参加了会议 - 包括碰撞和犯罪现场调查员，消防和救护车服务，私人调查员，保险公司和救助公司。这意味着我们正在帮助他们更好地了解崩溃中发生的情况，这反过来又影响了对之后收集的证据的理解。

Because we’re committed to supporting UK policing, we’re willing to put in that bit extra. When Guernsey Police wanted to explore our RTC360 laser scanning solution, for example, there was no hesitation in flying down there to show it to them. If necessary, we’ll do training at force HQ instead of our own headquarters, as we did for Nottinghamshire Police. And in certain circumstances, we can lend equipment, too.
