BREWSTER, NY and TUCSON, AZ- May 7, 2008 ---
Knowledge Computing Corporation and ELSAG North America
Law Enforcement Systems today announced a strategic
partnership to support information sharing and
intelligence-led policing initiatives among law
enforcement. The announcement was made in conjunction
with the International Association of Chiefs of Police (IACP)
Law Enforcement Information Management (LEIM) Conference
taking place this week in Nashville, Tennessee.
Knowledge Computing Corp.'s COPLINK® is the leading
end-to-end tactical analysis and lead generation
solution for fighting crime and terrorism. ELSAG North
America is the market leader in automatic license plate
recognition (ALPR) technology with its Mobile Plate
Hunter, the MPH-900®. Together, the companies will
enable integration of data obtained from ELSAG's license
plate recognition solution into the COPLINK solution.
"COPLINK's information
sharing, tactical analysis, lead generation,
visualization and decision support solutions are proven
performers when it comes to solving or thwarting crime
and terrorism," stated Mark Windover, President and CEO
of ELSAG North America. "Because over 70% of all crimes
involve the use of vehicles, the license plate data
available through ELSAG's system will become even more
valuable in helping law enforcement prevent criminals or
terrorists from falling through the cracks."
"ELSAG has demonstrated
consistent leadership in providing one of the most
advanced and accurate license plate recognition
solutions in the industry," said Robert Griffin, CEO of
Knowledge Computing Corp. "With a combined reach in over
1700 jurisdictions nationwide, spanning across 33
states, including all five of the nation's largest
cities, this partnership will enable both companies to
expand and better serve our client base."
Once both companies have
completed their pilot deployment together, ELSAG North
America will become an official member of Knowledge
Computing Corp.'s COPLINK Interoperability Certified
Partner Program. A key component of the program is
working collaboratively with clients and vendors to
develop or deploy best practice integration, privacy and
security standards that can be replicated nationally.
