Bringing the Best in Tech to Law Enforcement

Fifth Dimension | May 16, 2018
Hello, World

Law enforcement agencies’ (LEAs) and police departments’ (PDs) goals are to make our communities safer. To do so, they need to solve cases effectively and quickly. However, today’s departments and agencies are tasked with massive datasets and limited amounts of time that require a new approach to the processing and analysis of information to reduce crime.  

A Quick Look at the Industry

Many industries – such as healthcare and finance – are finding ways to utilize technology to make their jobs easier and more effective, integrating new solutions that revolutionize old workflows to streamline operations. And in much the same way, LEAs and PDs should be looking for new ways to meet contemporary challenges, such as extreme data overload and the complexities of data processing and analysis.

By leveraging technology, investigative work can be smarter and faster - helping to process and solve cases effectively with greater knowledge and productivity.

The challenges facing today’s LEAs and PDs are many. First of all, investigative work is hampered by massive amounts of data that exist in multiple files and formats and reside in various databases. Aggravating things further is the fact that there aren’t enough analysts or time to process and review this data. Unfortunately, this results in missed insights and potential leads that could help crack a case.

That’s where Fifth Dimension comes in! We are a team of former defense and security officials, as well as data scientists with knowledge and experience in advanced tech, police investigations, and operations. We pride ourselves on understanding the professional needs and challenges of investigative work today – and therefore have developed a platform around the models, methodologies and data sources used by today's law enforcement professionals.

The Fifth Dimension solution is based on advanced technologies in AI and deep learning, helping investigative teams quickly and simply convert large-scale data into actionable insights to help agencies connect the dots in complex investigations, identify suspicious patterns, and make the public safer.

Leveraging AI to Solve Crime

Our solution leverages the capabilities of AI on top of large-scale data infrastructures, or what is known as a unified data architecture. This enables us to use machine learning capabilities to generate new, powerful tools for investigative work.

So, how does it work? Police and law enforcement professionals are able to analyze all of their data at once by transforming unstructured data into a structured form, pooling information from across databases into one central location. Analysts are able to pose queries to reveal hidden insights and generate leads that allow crimes to be solved quickly and effectively, when every second counts.

The platform’s AI and deep learning capabilities are pre-integrated to allow for connecting related entities across multiple data sets. In an instant, an analyst is able to provide immediate visual link analysis of these entities - like known associates, vehicles and mobile devices - linked to a suspect under investigation.

An End-to-End Tool: Making the World a Safer Place

We believe in helping law enforcement officials solve crime better and more efficiently, which is why our goal is to bring the best in tech to the law enforcement world.

Fifth Dimension helps law enforcement officials make the maximum use of their mass-scale data, transforming information into game-changing value. It automatically reveals investigation insights and opens up connections inside the data, speeding case resolution.
