In 2023, the City of Lancaster announced the Digital Shield Initiative, a groundbreaking approach to ensure your safety in Lancaster. Utilizing advanced investigative technology and AI-driven systems, this initiative forms a protective canopy over our City, safeguarding you and your loved ones. 

Bringing all the technology together, a centralized intelligence for a coordinated response. A central point to collect tips for the region during active criminal incidents and investigations.
