The Force has been committed to applying innovative technologies to implement digital policing in recent years, and adoption of big data analytics is part of the efforts. In April, 11 officers from Information Systems Wing (ISW) attended online training on application of big data analytics in law enforcement organised by School of Information and Network Security of People’s Public Security University of China. They completed the intermediate level course, which covers how to build and apply models with universal operators, business operators and SQL functions. With much endeavour, they passed all four assessments and obtained a certificate from the School. Senior Superintendent of Innovation and Solution Lab (ISLAB) Dr Hui Chun-wai expects that the course will help enhance officers’ professional knowledge so that the team can more effectively promote application of big data analytics in policing. The 11 officers will act as big data analytics trainers to pass the knowledge onto other colleagues.
Moreover, ISLAB held several big data analysis training courses over the past months with 181 participants having completed the training. It has also worked with different units in a “proof-of-concept” approach to apply big data analytics to policing duties.
