Briefing
Log
The Police
Dept. briefing log is a report generated by the 911 Computer
Aided Dispatch Records System.
It does require a brief explanation of what is on the
form.
Call Type:
Selected by dispatcher from a list of options.
This is done by the dispatcher and is based on the
information given by the caller.
It may or may not be correct based on the Officers
investigation.
Times:
Military times are used. Ex. hr:min:sec 12:10:08 a.m.=
10:08, 1:19:10 p.m. = 13:19:10
Location:
Location given is not necessarily where the incident is
found to have occurred. Location
may also be given by the “common name” of an area, such as
“
Mote
Park
.”
Dispositions:
Multiple types of dispositions are possible from Administrative
Close to Warnings to the different types of Arrests that are
made.
Narrative:
What the dispatcher gives to the Officer when he is
dispatched to a call. The
Officer may add comments to the card when he completes the call.
This Briefing
Log will be updated on Tuesday and Fridays each week.
Briefing Logs can be quite lengthy and may be 50 or more
pages in length. Certain
types of calls for service are omitted so this is not an
exclusive list of the number or type of calls for service
experienced by the Piqua Police Dept. |
