The Norman Police Department joined the Police Data Initiative to promote the use of open data to encourage joint problem solving, innovation, enhanced understanding, and accountability between the community we serve and our agency. NPD was the first agency in Oklahoma to join the Police Data Initiative in September 2016.
This site provides a consolidated listing of open data sets that NPD has identified as important and tailored to the Norman community. NPD's Open Data Portal stands to further our agency's transparency, build community trust, and strengthen accountability, while also engaging our community partners and members. We recognize that open data and community trust are all essential to true community policing.
All NPD datasets are housed in the Open Data Portal. Each dataset is provided to provide insight and important context to policing and public safety in Norman. Datasets are updated on a quarterly basis.
