State of the NYPD 2024



(roughly 26 minutes 39 seconds into video)

• An eye in the sky like we have never had before.
  
  
• These tools are terrific for monitoring large crowds, apprehending suspects trying to evade arrest, as well as giving us an incredible vantage point. One that allows our executives to make smart decisions in real-time.
  
  
• We deployed a variety of drones in 2023, the value of these drones were on display last summer, when a pop-up gathering in Union Square went viral. The drones gave us a 'birds-eye view' of the growing crowd. We could see we needed a significant number of officers to restore order to the park. Using this vantage point, a plan was quickly developed, and your cops went to work. If we only had the street view, we would not have been able to see or properly assess the situation. The drones allowed us to deploy quickly, to protect property, and to avoid serious injury out there.
