The Sarasota Police Department Real-Time Operations Center (ROC) is a centralized hub that enhances public safety by bringing together live technology and real-time intelligence.

It integrates tools such as traffic cameras, license plate readers, computer-aided dispatch data and other digital systems to give officers a comprehensive, real-time view of activity across the City of Sarasota.

This improved situational awareness allows analysts and officers to quickly track developing incidents, support field units and respond more efficiently to crimes in progress. The ROC ultimately strengthens investigative capabilities and helps the department make faster, more informed decisions to better protect the community.
