Longview, TX – Geographic Technologies Group, Inc. (GTG) announced today that the City of McKinney,
Texas has procured additional product functionality from GTG’s LG GIS software suite. The City will be
implementing additional search functionality for LGcrimes software to expand the City’s existing LG platform
which already includes other GIS applications such as LGmobile, LGdispatch, LGaddress, GISmo,
LGviewer, and GeoManager.
LGcrimes is an affordable and easy-to-use crime reporting, mapping and analysis software application
designed for towns, cities and counties of all sizes and complexities. LGcrimes aids in the visualization and
analysis of police incident information. The spatial distribution of crimes will allow law enforcement
professionals to maximize the use of departmental assets to satisfy the ever-growing demand for critical
services. Public Safety departments with limited budgets and staff can now take advantage of crime
analysis technology while leveraging their organization’s investment in GIS technology.
James Kelt, GTG’s Regional Manager and director of GTG’s Texas office says, “McKinney, Texas is one of
the fastest growing communities in the nation. They have implemented enterprise wide GIS solutions that
serve both the public and various city departments. One important aspect to city officials is the value of GIS
to the police department. This additional functionality will allow the police department to map and analyze
crime database information such as arrests, accidents, citations, sex offender locations and 911 calls for
service.”
The City’s continuing utilization of GTG’s LG products highlights the value of GTG products as an integrated
