BAIR Analytics Becomes a Google for Work Partner

HIGHLANDS RANCH, Colo., Sept. 16, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- BAIR Analytics announced today that it has become an Authorized Google Maps for Work Partner. By becoming a partner, BAIR's geographic crime pattern software will be improved and streamlined by Google Maps, allowing citizens to view and search for crime occurring in their own neighborhoods with greater ease. The switch to Google Maps will decrease loading times, increase accuracy and introduce Google Map's Street View zoom option to BAIR's existing software. By providing the public with avenues to inform themselves of crime, BAIR and Google are encouraging awareness and promoting public safety through providing visual representations of criminal activity, shaping the landscape of geographic crime mapping.

"The Google for Work Partner program has enabled us to offer a superior crime map to our customers, bolstering public safety", said Sean Bair, President of BAIR Analytics.  "We're pleased to be recognized as a Partner, and we look forward to continuing our work helping customers take advantage of Google Maps for Public Safety."

As a part of the Partner program, BAIR Analytics receives training, support and deployment tools from Google. Google's services will allow BAIR to become a primary contributor for Google's crime mapping and help grow their public safety services.
