Nothing is quite as important as time when public safety is at risk. For the Brockton (Massachusetts) Police Department, discovering new ways to serve the public more quickly and efficiently is a constant challenge for officers both on patrol and at the station.

Unfortunately, several systems that had worked in the past were no longer up to speed.

After investigating several computer systems that could be networked between the cruisers and the dispatcher, the Brockton PD purchased five units of the Data 911 M5 from Glacier Computer, based in Amherst, New Hampshire, a leading source of rugged computer systems for harsh environments.

"The main reason that we chose Glacier is that the Data 911 M5 product is easy for the officers to use," said Kendrick. "Even in direct sunlight, the touch-screen is clear, with easy-to-read graphics and user-friendly software. Having a readable screen under all types of conditions is crucial, and that's something that no competitor's product offered."
