Urban Information Systems Interagency Committee (USAC) Public Safety Information Subsystem

摘要

A visual aid for presentations on the USAC concept and on the City of Long Beach, Calif., USAC Public Information system, this looseleaf compendium outlines basic details on the background of USAC and its approach and charts the components and functions of the City of Long Beach's system. The Urban Information System's Interagency Committee is chaired by HUD and has membership from 9 additional Federal agencies. The committee was formed to promote more effective local government and enhance urban information resources by establishing and perpetuating Federal, State, and local development of urban information systems. The approach is for totally integrated municipal information systems and subsystems with both horizontal and vertical relationships and interfaces. The Long Beach system will include finance, human resources, public safety, and physical and economic development subsystems. The public safety subsystem, the focus of this material, will include a police function, license permits and code enforcement, fire function, and civil defense. Each of these components' previous information control systems were analyzed prior to development of the integrated system. Purpose, processes, and information provided by each component under the integrated system are outlined and charted.
