This book provides thoughtful and extensively researched perspectives, to improve understanding of risks and rewards, and to outline strategies for developing and implementing mature information management capabilities focused on core public safety and security outcomes.
Decision makers in Canadian public safety and security organizationslaw enforcement, fire and paramedic services, emergency management and national security, from local to national scopes and scales—are faced with an onslaught of rapidly changing technologies with uncertain application in an increasingly complex safety and security. How do these technologies fit into a strategic information management capability for public safety and security organizations? How do these technologies impact other areas of the organization? How can we harness these technologies to improve safety and security outcomes for Canadians? How would information governance strategy, governance and resourcing need to be structured and how would this function in the current operating environment and how would ethics, standards, privacy and information sharing and protection mechanisms need to be addressed in the face of compliance with legislation, regulation or policy?
This volume makes the case for adopting strategic IM mindsets and practices intended to address a range of persistent IM challenges in public safety and security such as: building mature analytics and information sharing capabilities; building ethics, privacy, security and standards into IM governance aligned with public safety and security outcomes.
The book is intended for senior decision makers in organizations that have responsibilities to delivery on core public safety and security outcomes and rely on information management to do so. These decision-makers face rapidly changing technologies in an increasingly complex business environment, face pressures for talent management and face risk-laden practices that impede or constrain the optimal use of information to achieve these outcomes for their organizations.

About the Author
Fraser Moffatt is a Defence Scientist working for Defence Research and Development Canada’s Centre for Security Science. Mr. Moffatt earned his undergraduate and graduate degrees in Geography at Carleton University in Ottawa, Ontario, Canada. His undergraduate studies focused on geographic information science while his graduate studies focused on the application of empirical spatial analysis methods to theories of environmental criminology. His master’s thesis developed a framework for the application of Bayesian probability to the spatial prediction of residential break and enter occurrences in an urban setting. Mr. Moffatt spent the early part of his professional career in law enforcement and public safety organizations, conducting applied research and analysis on a wide variety of operational problems. Between 2000 and 2005, Mr. Moffatt held sessional lecturer positions in graduate and undergraduate courses in Geography and Environmental Science at Carleton University and the University of Ottawa. Since 2009, Mr. Moffatt has focused on military and public safety information management problems and has delivered R&D advice, assistance and solutions at local, national and international levels including municipal, provincial and federal public safety organizations in Canada and for the United Nations Department of Safety and Security. Mr. Moffatt served as a deployed operational research analyst and advisor for the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) Training Mission in Afghanistan (NTM-A). Mr. Moffatt currently serves as a technical advisor on the Canadian Association of Chiefs of Police (CACP) Information and Communications Technology (ICT) Committee.
Brian Rector graduated in 1983 with a Ph.D. (Psychology) from the University of Manitoba. For the first 35 years of his professional career, he was employed with the Government of Saskatchewan as director of psychology/treatment positions in fields such as developmental disabilities, child welfare, youth and adult correctional services. During this time Dr. Rector collaborated with the U.S. Department of Justice: Probation and Pre-Trial Services, in training, implementing, and evaluating evidence-based practices. He has collaborated with multiple Canadian Universities in the fields of Forensic Psychology, Mathematics, Computer Science, Public Health and Economics.
Prior to his recent retirement from the Edmonton Police Service (EPS), Dr. Rector was the inaugural Senior Director of the Community Solutions Branch. He supervised a team of senior scientists in the fields of Mathematics, Computer Science, and Applied Statistics. The team works within a cloud-based secure data lab that can include data from external police services. Projects involve various combinations of EPS subject-matter experts and university scientists reflecting the skill sets required for each initiative. All research initiatives involving university partners are reviewed and approved by their respective Ethics Research Board. The primary purpose of these initiatives is to improve public safety outcomes. Examples of initiatives included: 1. Missing Persons – in collaboration with Peel Regional Police Services; 2. Improving investigation technologies via the development of Informative AI to instantaneously analyze all unstructured and structured records across operating systems; 3. Psychoactive Substances, in collaboration with Statistics Canada, involving integrated analysis of multiple data sets. Dr. Rector is a registered psychologist in Alberta.

Instructions for revocation
Revocation right
You have the right to revoke this contract within 14 days without specifying any reasons.
The revocation period is 14 days with effect from the day,
-
on which you or a third party nominated by you, which is not the carrier, had taken possession of the products, provided you had ordered one or more products within the scope of a standard order and this/these product/products is/are delivered uniformly;
-
on which you or a third party nominated by you, which is not the carrier, had taken possession of the last product, provided you had ordered several products within the scope of a standard order and these products are delivered separately;
-
on which you or a third party nominated by you, which is not the carrier, had taken possession of the last part delivery or the last unit, provided you had ordered a product, which is delivered in several part deliveries or units;
To exercise your right of withdrawal, you must inform us (preigu GmbH & Co. KG, Lengericher Landstr. 19, 49078 Osnabrück, Telephone number: +49 (0) 541 / 580 72 84, E-Mail address: mail@preigu.de) by means of a clear declaration (e.g. a letter sent by post, or an e-mail) of your decision to withdraw from this contract. You can use the attached model withdrawal form for this purpose, which is, however, not mandatory.
You can also exercise your right of withdrawal online by clicking on a button labelled accordingly (such as ‘Withdraw from contract' or similar) on the AbeBooks/ZVAB website. If you use this online function, you will immediately receive a confirmation of receipt on a durable medium (e.g. via email) containing information on the content of the withdrawal notice, as well as the date and time of its receipt.
In order to safeguard the revocation period, it is sufficient that you send the notification about the exercise of the revocation right before the expiry of the revocation period.
Consequences of the revocation
If you revoke this contract, we shall repay all the payments, which we received from you, including the delivery costs (with the exception of additional costs, which arise from that fact that you selected a form of delivery other than the most reasonable standard delivery offered by us), immediately and at the latest within 14 days from the day on which we received the notification about the revocation of this contract from you. We use the same means of payment, which you had originally used during the original transaction, for this repayment unless expressly agreed otherwise with you; you will not be charged any fees owing to this repayment.
We can refuse the repayment until the products are returned to us or until you have furnished evidence that you have sent the products back to us, depending on whichever is earlier.
You must return or transfer the products to us immediately and, in any case, at the latest within 14 days with effect from the day on which you inform us of the revocation of this contract. The deadline is maintained if you send the products before the expiry of the 14 day deadline.
You bear the direct costs for returning the products.
You must pay for any depreciation of the products only if this depreciation can be attributed to any handling with you that was not necessary for checking the condition, features and functionality of the products.
