Episode: 00211 Released on May 13, 2024 Description: We kick off this week with a thought-provoking episode with Damien Williams! In this episode, Jason and Damien discuss the use of CompStat in modern policing and the pros and cons of its variants. Damien’s badge story pertains to a hit-and-run incident he helped investigate that landed the offender over a decade of prison time and the victim, while alive, an unfortunate life-changing event. Damien encourages aspiring analysts to invest in GIS courses, secure internships, and join professional associations (and attend their training conferences) to kick off their careers. Damien is currently a research data analyst for the City of Rock Hill (SC), a position he’s held for almost 20 years!
CHALLENGE: There are Easter eggs in one of the tables of the Excel chapter that Jason wrote for the IACA textbook. First-person to email us at [email protected] about what the Easter eggs are will receive a $50 gift card from us. Happy hunting!
