  Why it might be a killer  

CrimeReports.com is a good way to keep citizens informed about crime going on in their community. It’s much more useful than the local news or the newspaper. Police departments can definitely benefit from paying for the service.

  Some questions  

Will CrimeReports.com be able to include more locations in the near future?

I think these guys are taking off. I remember going to the site in January and they only had like 10 PDs signed up. Now it looks like they have 200 (or something like that). That's a pretty solid growth rate and if Alan3 is right the price is cheap!

Its success is up to the local police agencies signing up, and at $99 a month and the ability for the service to automatically pull incident info directly from the agencies RMS server. I think more will come on. The price and time to manually extract information and map in a GIS application and all that gets you is a static PDF is far more. Its well worth it.

Sorry, my test entries show this service is not ready for prime time! Great idea, but the data is not there now and may never be - site is too dependent on need for inpuit, which it may not get from reporting agencies!Final conclusion: Thumbs down \ Please prove me wrong!
