BorderSafe: Cross-Jurisdictional Information Sharing, Analysis, and Visualization

Information sharing and knowledge management have become a major focus in Digital Government research. The "COPLINK BorderSafe Research and Testbed" project funded by NSF KDD program and the BorderSafe project funded by Department of Homeland Security (DHS) and the Corporation for National Research Initiatives (CNRI) aim to develop, foster, and leverage inter-agency information sharing. The partners, involved in the projects include the Artificial Intelligence (AI) Lab at the University of Arizona, Tucson Police Department (TPD), Phoenix Police Department (PPD), Pima County Sheriff's Department (PCSD), Tucson Customs and Border Protection (CBP), San Diego Automated Regional Justice Information System (ARJIS), San Diego Supercomputer Center (SDSC), and Knowledge Computing Corporation (KCC).
