Hertfordshire Constabulary: In-Vehicle Connectivity

Hertfordshire Police serve an area of 632 square miles, with a population of well over a million people and a wide range of demands on the force. To help the constabulary better serve their community the force wanted to create a connected vehicle network that would enable police officers to access real-time information at the point of need to enable faster and more informed decisions.

  • Low profile antenna designed for vehicular application
  • Technical support and consultancy from Westbase.io to optimise connectivity
  • Easy installation as part of the vehicle’s upgrade or manufacturing process
  • Fast and reliable connectivity in and around the police cars
  • Vehicles now “mobile police stations”, providing access to command and control systems for database checks, as well as access to desktop applications on the road
  • Officers able to spend an extra 2 hours a day in the community
  • Improved crime intelligence and arrest rates

“There is no doubt that we are seeing the business and community benefits of these devices. They improve our access to information, which improves our crime intelligence and arrest rates. They also make our officers more visible by enabling them to be in the community for more of the time.

The Toughpad and related technology are enabling us to help the community and prevent and detect crime in ways that have never been possible before.”
