ESTIMATING THE AVAILABILITY OF LLEA OFFICERS

An important element in the analysis of transportation safeguards systems is the determination of the availability of local law enforcement agents. Such information is necessary to identify areas where there are few officers available and to make comparisons of alternative routes. A computerized model, COPS, has been developed which rapidly estimates the total number of officers along a highway route. This paper briefly describes the model and presents example results for several routes in California and Nevada. (ERA citation 03:002693)
