Description The line and fill symbols have been made manually.
The origin of the point symbols is:
- CMS.The Crime Mapping Symbology. The symbols are tailored to the requirements of police departments. The information infrastructure of police forces typically includes two core systems, Computer Aided Dispatch (CAD) and a Records Management System (RMS). Although the dataset is specifically designed to meet needs of a police department many of the symbols would be of use for any first reponder organization (police, ambulance or fire).

The grant was applied for and granted to the Tacoma Police Department and Lakewood Police Department, and the custodian of the final product is the Law Enforcement Support Agency (LESA).
