Citizen-led crime-reporting initiatives
Interesting article about mapping the incidents of crime. There is no technical or economic reason why you can’t real-time map 911 Calls. If the getting the exact street address is an issue then just reduce the granularity. If the goal is to keep people from blundering into dangerous situations then alerting people to current incidents in a region rather than at a point is the way to go. If we consider the real time traffic maps, this should be an easier problem.
