TY - JOUR PY - 2006// TI - The Effectiveness of Redeployable CCTV JO - Crime prevention and community safety A1 - Waples, S A1 - Gill, M. SP - 1 EP - 16 VL - 8 IS - 1 N2 - Although there is some published research on CCTV almost all of it is on static CCTV. Yet there is emerging a popular different type, one that can be moved around to deal with crime hotspots as they arise. The flexibility and the fact that it is perceived as more cost effective add to its appeal. However, until now redeployable CCTV has attracted very little comment. The paper discusses an empirical research study assessing its effectiveness and then attempts to highlight some of the policy implications. What is clear is that if the potential of this technology is ever to be realized, it will need to be managed very differently.
