What Amber's Angels + Carrollton PD can build together — from CAD integration and NCIC sync to real-time crime center infrastructure.
This is the floor. A formal partnership doesn't build this — it extends it.
Three polling sources — CMAS (5 min), EAS (2 min), NWS. AMBER, Silver, Mattie's, Blue, Purple alerts auto-extracted and pushed to volunteer phones.
Pilots relinquish drones from home. Coordinators dispatch via map click. DJI MSDK V5 uploads waypoints automatically. VLOS + BVLOS Tactical modes.
OpenALPR + YOLOv8-nano + optional Plate Recognizer cloud. Five-second aggregation window. HIGH_CONFIDENCE threshold 90+ with 3 supporting frames.
7-layer coordinator dashboard: alert polygons, road coverage gaps, drone positions, ADS-B traffic, watchlist hits. NCMEC cases cross-referenced against active vehicle targets.
Flock Safety camera network overlaid on road segments — coordinators see which corridors have zero coverage and route pilots to fill gaps before a suspect vehicle escapes.
OpenSky ADS-B feed integrated into dispatch modal. Any aircraft within 5 nm below 3,000 ft flagged with callsign, altitude, and heading before a mission is confirmed.
A signed MOU gives us two data access points. In return, CPD gets an aerial sensing layer that feeds directly into existing law enforcement infrastructure.
Stolen vehicles, ATL entries, wanted persons' plates — automated daily sync into the watchlist.
Endpoint + API key to create calls-for-service on HIGH_CONFIDENCE match. Motorola PremierOne, Tyler New World, or any REST CAD.
Aerial ALPR · NCMEC cross-reference
Swarm dispatch · Composite scoring
Detection events, drone positions, and alert polygons streamed to your real-time crime center as a standardized data layer.
HIGH_CONFIDENCE plate match → call-for-service created in CAD automatically, units notified.
Closed missions generate chain-of-custody PDF reports for records management system import.
When composite scoring crosses the threshold, coordinators today get a Discord embed. With CAD integration, a verified match creates a call-for-service directly in your system — no coordinator in the loop required.
ALPR + YOLO composite score ≥ 90, 3+ supporting frames, active watchlist plate.
Plate, vehicle description, GPS coordinates, confidence score, drone ID, timestamp.
POST to Motorola PremierOne / Tyler New World — priority assigned, nearest units notified.
Golden frame linked in call notes. Chain of custody begins at match time.
Your RTCC already monitors cameras, CAD, and ALPR on a unified map. We become the data source for aerial detections — no separate login, no operator on scene.
Active FEMA and NWS search areas rendered as map layers in your COP — color-coded by alert type, auto-removed on federal cancellation.
All active swarm drones stream GPS position, altitude, heading, and mission status. Coordinators and officers see the aerial asset layer in real time.
Every detection event — plate, confidence, vehicle description, GPS, frame thumbnail — available as a live event stream for RTCC ingestion.
Watchlist match events with full context pushed as priority notifications. Integrates with Genetec, Motorola Avigilon, Fusus, or any platform with a webhook receiver.
Today the watchlist is exclusively FEMA-derived — plates extracted from active federal alerts. GCIC/NCIC access changes what every drone in the network is scanning for, passively, on every flight.
FEMA-issued AMBER / Silver Alert plates only. Watchlist is empty between active alerts.
Stolen vehicles, ATL entries, wanted persons' plates — live hotlist, continuously refreshed.
Drones scan only when a federal alert is active.
Every volunteer patrol, every training flight — the entire hotlist is being scanned in real time.
A patrol route that would previously generate zero actionable detections becomes a distributed ALPR network queried against every plate law enforcement is actively looking for.
A child goes missing. A NCMEC report is filed within hours. A federal AMBER Alert may take days — or never issue. An LLM agent that reads each poster on ingest and extracts structured vehicle data activates aerial search before the federal alert system acts.
LLM structured extraction pass on each new NCMEC poster. Outputs a validated vehicle profile or null if no vehicle data is present.
Today swarm drones fly to one observation point and hover. The infrastructure for systematic grid search is already in the codebase — a partnership activates it operationally.
Coordinator places a single pin. Drone flies to that point and hovers at altitude, running ALPR + YOLO on passing vehicles. Used for choke points, intersections, highway on-ramps.
Coordinator draws or imports a search area. System divides into sectors by drone count. Each drone flies a systematic lawnmower pattern. Full polygon coverage guaranteed — not probabilistic hovering. Code is built. Config flag activates it.
Five drones, five sectors, one coordinator action. Combined with the NCMEC vehicle agent, a search area can be fully covered within one hour of a case being opened — before a federal alert is issued.
Every HIGH_CONFIDENCE match already stores a golden evidence frame with timestamp, drone ID, and confidence score. A partnership-tier evidence package makes that record court-ready and RMS-importable.
Full log of detection events, confidence scores, and status transitions from dispatch to landing — with UTC timestamps.
Golden frames with plate bounding box, confidence score, drone ID, GPS coordinates, and frame sequence number. All stored at time of match — no post-processing.
Rendered GPS track with waypoints, altitude profile, and detection event markers — exportable as PDF or KML.
Source alert (FEMA identifier), watchlist match criteria, scoring methodology, operator username, and mission ID. Defensible provenance from federal alert to detection.
What we're describing is a lightweight RTCC module for missing-persons aerial response — built for municipalities that can't afford helicopter units. Every city that partners gets what Carrollton gets. The first partnership defines the model.
Proof of concept. Live platform, formal partnership, CAD + NCIC integration. The reference deployment.
Adjacent counties join under mutual aid. Volunteer swarm capacity pools. Shared detection feed across jurisdictions.
GEMA partnership. Statewide aerial AMBER response network. GCIC integration state-level. Every active alert has drone coverage.
Agency partnerships as RTCC data provider. Interoperable with NCMEC, DHS, state fusion centers.
The platform is already running. A partnership agreement is the only gate between today and the capabilities on this roadmap.
Demo AMBER Alert injected. Two volunteers — one phone, one drone — both hit 99% peak confidence on plate YVJ024.
What's missing is the data handshake that turns a volunteer drone network into law enforcement infrastructure. One signed partnership agreement changes what this platform can do — and sets the blueprint for every deployment after it.
