Peregrine for the Salinas Police Department
Our Background
Peregrine was founded in 2017 with the goal of empowering organizations like the Salinas Police Department to make data-driven decisions based on data integrated across otherwise siloed systems. The Peregrine team has decades of experience building enterprise software alongside government and non-government entities.
We are based in San Francisco, California and have partnered closely with several municipal Northern California police departments to bring cutting-edge technologies to vital public servants while recognizing and respecting the critical security, privacy, and transparency principles that communities demand from government agencies.
Our professional support team has extensive experience working directly with officers, analysts, investigators, administrative personnel, executive staff, and senior leaders.
The Peregrine Platform
To deliver on the above use cases, Peregrine proposes deployment of the Peregrine platform, a web-based, CJIS-compliant software-as-a-service (SaaS) that provides a single point of access to integrate, discover, view, and analyze data from Salinas Police Department-defined data sources. We designed the Peregrine platform with police departments in mind, making it uniquely suited to the needs of Salinas Police Department. The platform performs several critical functions including data integration, search and information retrieval, advanced analytics, data management, reporting, data exchange and sharing, access control, audit logging, and security.
The Peregrine platform provides an efficient method for turning large amounts of raw data into actionable information. Peregrine does not provide nor create new data for its customers—our platform integrates existing data and makes it available to end users in a decision-ready state.
DATA INTEGRATION & MODELING
The Salinas Police Department has volumes of valuable data, but that value cannot be unlocked because data is scattered across separate systems, siloed in ways that prevent it from being understood and analyzed together. The Peregrine platform is built to rapidly integrate, clean, transform, and model large amounts of raw data from disparate systems and continuously surface actionable information while reducing manual processing needs.
Peregrine Unlocks Data Sources by Integrating Them into a Single, Secure Platform
January 10, 2023
3 Proprietary and Confidential
The platform securely integrates data in near-real time to ensure that users have the most current and reliable information when and where they need it. As data flows into the platform, granular security controls, retention policies, and changes from underlying systems are continuously monitored and applied.
As soon as data enters the platform, it is mapped to an agency- specific data model that is molded to the unique operations of the Salinas Police Department. This data model provides a dynamic representation of all data – entities, locations, events, and the links between them. Harmonizing multi-source data into one data model allows users to smoothly analyze data without requiring a technical understanding of the underlying source systems themselves.
The data model is a dynamic layer of the Peregrine platform, one that can evolve and adapt in response to changes in the Salinas Police Department’s underlying data systems, even as those systems are upgraded or swapped out. Most often we find that an agency’s data needs are fundamentally dynamic, but the systems that hold the data are static; Peregrine’s data model responds dynamically to changes so that Salinas Police Department can power its operations through the Peregrine platform even as its technology infrastructure and operational needs evolve.
SEARCH & INFORMATION RETRIEVAL
Once data is integrated into the Peregrine platform, it is immediately accessible through front-end applications. Personnel can easily search for data and filter based on criteria relevant for their investigations, analysis, or other workflow. The Peregrine platform is intuitive to use, allowing personnel of varying technical abilities, skillsets, and functions to surface information that is relevant to them and streamline their unique search workflows.
The platform is designed to be walk-up usable; new users of the platform can immediately surface, analyze, and action data by navigating the platform’s intuitive user interface and applications.
These users have multiple ways to surface and view relevant information, allowing them flexibility to approach questions and decisions in ways that best suit them. These features mean that users arrive at answers more quickly and with greater accuracy, saving time and effort.
EXPLORATION, VISUALIZATION, & REPORTING TOOLS
The Peregrine platform provides a powerful suite of tools for the exploration, visualization, and reporting of data. These tools enable personnel to create dynamic data products and reports—such as interactive maps, network graphs, and dashboards—that
automatically update as new data flows into the platform. Personnel can smoothly move data between analytical tools, viewing the same data in different modalities without having to log into different systems or applications. For more information about some of the platform’s analysis tools, please see Appendix A: Select Data Analysis Tools.
PERMISSION-BASED COLLABORATION & SHARING
January 10, 2023
4 Proprietary and Confidential
The Peregrine platform provides features for secure collaboration and sharing that will enable the Salinas Police Department to build deeper, trusting partnerships with local and regional stakeholders, including with city leadership and the broader community. The platform’s granular access and usage control capabilities prevent unauthorized or inappropriate use or sharing of sensitive data while allowing agencies and departments to share information with their partners in a deliberate, precise, and auditable manner. For more information on the platform’s auditing capabilities, please see Appendix B: Privacy, Civil Liberties & Security.
Collaboration in the Peregrine platform extends beyond simple data sharing; it also allows for multiple users to work within the same application at the same time across multiple devices and locations. The platform’s collaboration features compound the value of users’ work by dynamically connecting them in real time with other users who are working with or interested in the same data. In this way, the Peregrine platform generates opportunities for users to improve the quality and speed of their answers by connecting them to users who are asking the same question.
PRIVACY, CIVIL LIBERTIES, & SECURITY AS A FIRST-ORDER PRIORITY From its founding, Peregrine has held the advancement of privacy, civil liberties, and security as a core value of our company and a core element of our platform's architecture. Robust privacy, security, and audit control features are ingrained in the back-end data integration tools and the front-end applications of Peregrine’s platform. These features enable our platform to provide outsized value at agencies like Salinas Police Department that operate inside a closed network with stringent data security requirements.
Peregrine helps organizations build and maintain trust with their partners and communities by delivering three key platform capabilities:
granular data security, access, and usage controls
auditability and logging of user actions
continuous security and CJIS compliance
For more information, please see Appendix B: Privacy, Civil Liberties & Security.
OPENNESS & INTEROPERABILITY
Openness and interoperability are non-negotiable features for modern organizations. The Peregrine platform was designed for complete system interoperability and supports the integration of any type, format, or volume of data, including data from existing and future systems.
We have extensive experience integrating record management systems (e.g., Mark43), computer aided dispatch systems (e.g., Central Square), body-worn cameras and evidence capture devices (e.g., AXON), geospatial tools (e.g., Esri), video recording solutions (e.g., Genetec), automatic license plate readers (e.g., Flock, Vigilant), GPS location data, real- time sensor data, case management systems, evidence management systems, arrest records, search warrant data, subpoenaed data, and unstructured data such as documents, imagery, and video repositories.
Peregrine is also deployed with a suite of powerful Application Programming Interfaces (APIs) that allow the Salinas Police Department to automatically integrate data from its many software investments.

Appendix A: Select Data Analysis Tools
Geospatial Analysis Tool. To better understand geographical assets, events, and trends, the Peregrine platform includes an interactive Map application. The Map allows users to conduct visually intuitive geographical analysis on all agency data, both historical and in real-time. Users can surface trends, make connections, filter to areas of interest, drill into specific events, particular time periods, and add new layers of relevance on top as needed. The Map is designed for next-generation geographic contextual and situational awareness, allowing users to explore and answer specific questions with the most relevant data. The Map is intuitive for all personnel whether they are consuming pre-built analyses, conducting ad-hoc searches, or creating complex geospatial products from scratch.
Link Chart Analysis Tool. The platform’s Link Chart aids in the discovery and visualization of connections between otherwise disconnected data. The Link Chart allows users to discover links between people, places, entities, and events across one or multiple degrees of separation. Peregrine’s platform also automatically extracts links from both structured and unstructured data to illuminate connections between people, places, events, documents, and media data without requiring manual processing. For example, an address written in narrative form within a scanned document can be automatically linked to a person living at that address or to a vehicle registered there.
Reports & Dashboards. The platform’s report and
dashboard applications provide configurable, real-time executive summaries to inform situational awareness, statistical analysis, and decision making. Reports and dashboards are configurable to meet the unique needs and visual preferences of individual users. All reports and dashboards are directly connected to real-time data feeds, empowering users to drill down from high-level summary information to the most granular context with a single click. Once a user creates a dashboard, they can continue to use it indefinitely—and share it as needed.
Temporal Analysis Tool. By centralizing data—and all associated metadata—from data systems, users can understand and surface trends over time. Through an intuitive interface, users can analyze how, e.g., calls for service or types of incidents vary by day of week and time of day. Peregrine supports robust search and query capabilities at the day of week and hour of day level, enabling users to conduct analysis over specific units, in specific shifts, at specific locations. As a result, organization can make more informed, data-backed resourcing decisions to more effectively meet mission outcomes.
Real-Time Alerting. With all data centrally located, users can receive real-time notification on new data from any source system. The Peregrine platform’s alerting technology can notify specific users if a pre-defined data entity was added or removed, viewed, downloaded, renamed, or shared. This includes geo-fenced areas or user-defined polygons. For instance, if a neighborhood is experiencing a trend in a type of crime, a Peregrine user can create an alert through the platform’s “follow” feature. If another similar crime occurs in the defined area, a real-time notification will be sent to all users following this alert via email, SMS, or both.
Peregrine is also delivered with extensive tabular analysis tools and a variety of other analytical capabilities.

Appendix B: Privacy, Civil Liberties & Security
From its founding, Peregrine has held the advancement of privacy, civil liberties, and security as a core value of our company and a core element of our platform's architecture. Robust privacy, security, and audit control features are engrained in the back-end data integration tools and the front-end applications of Peregrine’s platform.
Peregrine helps organizations build and maintain trust with their partners and communities by delivering three key platform capabilities:
granular data security, access, and usage controls
auditability and logging of user actions
continuous security and CJIS compliance
Granular Data Security, Access, and Usage Controls
The Peregrine platform’s access and usage control capabilities allow organizations with stringent security requirements to share information with their partners in a deliberate, precise, and auditable manner while preventing unauthorized or inappropriate use of sensitive data.
To accomplish that, the Peregrine platform’s security model delivers precision data-handling and multi-level security capabilities that support several vital data security and privacy protections. The platform enables users with multiple and varying access permissions to interact appropriately with data in real-time, seeing only data they are authorized to see and using or sharing it only in ways for which they have authorization.
The Peregrine platform easily integrates with any existing single sign-on provider, ensuring users have a familiar, secure sign-on experience and administrators maintain single-source control over access to multiple applications within the network. The Peregrine platform is out-of-the-box compatible and easy to integrate with most identity providers, including ADFS, Okta, and PingFederate.
Auditability and Logging of User Actions
Peregrine logs all user actions that take place within the platform and maintains granular, permissioned audit trails that allow agency administrators to review and analyze all user activity. This provides organizations with comprehensive visibility, simplifies the enforcement of policies and procedures, and enhances internal reviews and investigations.
In each of these areas the Peregrine platform improves on legacy systems, which are often opaque, lack security, and are cumbersome to audit. The platform thus enables organizations to meet rising public expectations for accountability, privacy, transparency, and proper use of data.
Continuous Security and CJIS Compliance
Peregrine maintains CJIS-compliant policies and procedures for securely storing, handling, and transmitting data. By default, our platform encrypts all data both in transit and at rest and uses secure, government- accredited cloud hosting infrastructure (AWS GovCloud). Peregrine adheres to FIPS 140-2 cryptographic standards.
Peregrine provides modern as-a-service delivery and modernization of its software platform. This means that customers receive regular updates, performance improvements, bug fixes, and security patches on a continuous basis with little to no downtime or systemwide effects.
Testing standards deployed by Peregrine meet industry frameworks such as Microsoft SLDC and are designed to remediate vulnerabilities and security risks.
