Case Study: City of Lansing achieves unified crime data insights with TimeXtender

City of Lansing unifies data in 24/7 SQL Server environment with TimeXtender

The City of Lansing, Michigan, faced significant challenges in accessing and leveraging its data, which was spread across multiple disparate and siloed systems for law enforcement and incident reporting. This made gathering a unified view of criminal activity data a logistical nightmare. To solve this, the city partnered with vendor TimeXtender to implement its data management platform for automating data integration, modeling, and management.

Using TimeXtender, the city quickly merged its data sources into a single, always-on data estate hosted on Microsoft SQL Server. This provided law enforcement officials with 24/7 access to a unified platform for analysis, drastically reducing the need for time-consuming manual data manipulation. The solution implemented by TimeXtender improved police efficiency, saved time and resources, enabled faster identification of crime suspects, and helped create a safer environment for citizens.
