This latest phase will enable the state police to deploy wireless mobile data terminals and software in approximately 630 vehicles. This $6.9 million system addition follows a limited rollout of the project in south central and southeastern Pennsylvania, which was completed last year. The mobile data terminals and software will provide troopers a broad range of data communications capabilities right from their vehicles in the field.
The IMO project is part of the state's new Criminal Investigative/Traffic Safety Incident Information Management System (IIMS) initiated in 1999 by then Governor Tom Ridge. The mobile data solution is a collaborative effort between Motorola and the state police IIMS Mobile Office Team. This process included the design of the screen and keyboard mounts and the inclusion of an on-screen keyboard using touch screen capabilities.

Latest technology if provided to police and other authorities I am sure will help in reducing the amount of offensive acts around the world. Such mobile data systems should be available world wide to every police in every country as the problem is now global. - Amanda from Mobile Apps Development
