NYC to Enable to Upload Images, Video to 911 Call Centers
New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg announced plans to equip 911 call centers to receive digital images and video from cell phones and computers, as a means of fighting crime.
"If you see a crime in progress or a dangerous building condition, you'll be able to transmit images to 911, or online to nyc.gov," Bloomberg said. "And we'll start extending the same technology to 311 to allow New Yorkers to step forward and document nonemergency quality of life concerns, holding city agencies accountable for correcting them quickly and efficiently."
