Providence (RI) mayor David N. Cicilline unveiled the city’s new, $2.3 million wireless data system, which gives the city’s police and fire departments broadband capabilities to share data while in the field. The Motorola-built system was funded with federal grants, and uses mesh network technology to link mobile units and the police headquarters. Right now 24 police cars and three fire department command vehicles are linked to the network, allowing them to download video, mugshots, fingerprints and other high-bandwidth data.
