The New York City Police Department needs a way to rapidly and accurately account for and assign personnel during a pre-planned special event. There are currently many archaic systems utilized throughout the Department, yet none of these formats utilizes a computerized system. Because there is no single off-the-shelf product currently available to perform all of the narrow tasks involved in this problem, a solution needs to be developed. The solution to this problem is developing a system that will be a single standard for the entire Department. This solution will combine various hardware devices and off-the-shelf software products into a compact, easy to use lap-top system. The goal of this project is to develop a simple, cost efficient, mobile system that will accurately account for and assign police personnel during a pre-planned event
