Probably a later enhancement.

Going through it looked like some officers I would have expected to be in here are not. I wonder what would be the best way to link the data together.

nmarquezuw commented 4 years ago

Another source we may want to link at a future point https://invisible.institute/police-data https://beta.cpdp.co/

This is probably pretty high hanging fruit, but dang does it feel similar to the original linking problem I worked on

martinamorris commented 4 years ago

@V-Neck Yes, and I'm not sure it's a high priority.

Highest priority now, given how quickly the legistlative agenda is moving forward here in WA is to build a tab that allows for county level exploration/reports -- we'd definitely be able to use that here.
