Hi,
OPD beat map you have does have bering on the radio identifiers. A typical OPD identifier consists of three segments. for example: 1L26 and the last numbers correlate the beat or supervisory level.
Break down 1-L-26
first number:
1 is midnights
2 day shift
3 is swing shift
4- special operations (aircraft for example)
5- Tac unit- street crime suppression with no beat responsibilities.
7 are traffic or motorcycle units
11 are generally civilians crime scene techs or dogcatchers.
31 are park rangers/park police officers
33 are school district police officers
------
second segment a letter
L- solo uniformed patrol in marked unit
A- two man uniformed patrol in marked unit.
Tac- uniformed or soft clothed officers generally in a low profile car.
C- are generally non-sworn folks like crime civilian crime scene techs and dog catchers
----
last digit/s designate beat for officers and rank/function for ranks above officer.
so a 2 here would mean beat 2 and a 26 would mean beat 26 which correlates directly yo your map.
71 series units are sergeants, sergeants are further broken down by districts Of which there are four i think) 71 supervises district 1, 71 district two etc.
81 are lieutenants
91 captain/generally the watch commander

so as in the example; 1L26 would be midnights (aka 'dog watch'), solo patrolman/person working beat 26.
26 is in district 3 so he would supervised by 1L73 (District three sergeant) who is supervised by 1L82(Lieutenant for districts 3/4) who answers to 1L91 Captain/Watch Commander(God).

Helicopter is 4A50 or called 'Argus' from days old.

Now have fun with their 9 code.

I've heard reports that OPD is setting up 3 separate precincts in order to react faster to dispatches/incidents instead of the operating out of their single headquarters. Apparently a substation will be setup at Eastmont Mall plus another substation, probably on the east side. This makes sense to me in that you could virtually wipe out the entire headquarters and staff similar to what Timothy McViegh (and his Ryder Truck) did to the KC Federal Building. This is probably going to mean alot of beat re-districting due to known "hot spots of activity". They probably should have done this 20 years ago. At least it's a move in the right direction.
