Case Study: South American National Police Force achieves smarter policing and improved highway safety with Teradata's active data warehouse

A Smart-State Enabled Police Force Provides Better Protection

Teradata partnered with a national police force in a South American country responsible for protecting borders and monitoring tens of thousands of kilometers of federal highways. The force struggled to identify congestion and possible illegal activity because critical information—arrest orders, stolen-vehicle reports, sensor and traffic data—was siloed across disparate systems and lacked a scalable analytics platform.

Teradata implemented an active data warehouse and analytic ecosystem that integrated those data sources, enabling complex event processing, real-time monitoring, and officer risk assessment. The solution gave law enforcement deeper, faster insights to spot people, organizations, and vehicles involved in crimes, improved highway safety and border protection, increased productivity for traffic and drug-control operations, and provided a scalable foundation for broader smart-state initiatives.
