CANYON LAKE, Texas, Nov. 17, 2008 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- COPsync, Inc. (OTCBB:COYN), a software technology provider to law enforcement and emergency service professionals, is pleased to announce the release of the Auto-Vehicle Locator (AVL) module for their state of the art law enforcement product, COPsync(tm). COPsync(tm) is the first and only integrated software product that provides a real-time, nationwide information collection and sharing network for law enforcement officers.
Providing access to detailed, real-time location of officers in the field is extremely valuable information to a law enforcement agency. The COPsync(tm) AVL provides typical mapping features to officers in the field, but more importantly, it displays a map with the current location of all officers as they move about on patrol. The speed, direction, and current activity the officers are performing are provided in real-time.
In addition, each time an officer completes an activity in COPsync(tm) the GPS coordinates of that activity are automatically recorded. This information can then be used to more effectively assign resources and investigate crime trends. Another key feature of the COPsync AVL is the ability to select an area on a map and instantly send a message notification to every officer within that area. This strengthens the ability of COPsync(tm) to send immediate, real-time information to a large number of officers, regardless of the jurisdiction that they are employed.
"With this new technology available to the Law Enforcement profession, criminals will no longer be able to commit crimes and head to safety outside of jurisdictional boundaries. With instant broadcast messaging, 911-call centers now have the capabilities to notify and leverage all officers to assist in stopping or solving criminal activity -- not just officers employed locally. Criminals know to head to the safety of neighboring communities because it is common knowledge that today's Law Enforcement does not share information in real time to stop crimes in progress. With COPsync, we arm the officer on the street with the real time communication channel they need to stop criminal activity and find those responsible," states Russell Chaney, CEO of COPsync, Inc.
