Howard County Police updated beat map

[blee1099]

Was listening to the scanner after getting home from being out of town for work for the last month. After listening I noticed some changes to their police beat and was able to check their GIS system and yup it has changed. Baker beat is now out west and north of I-70, adam beat is east along 100 to 95, etc..

I've been thinking about bringing it back but just don't have the time to keep it up & running. The hardest part was when I was traveling for work and having no one there to reboot the server or the scanner. Maybe I'll bring it back one day. I figured you had a scanner capable of listening.

I do, just can't bring it to work. You had quite a few listeners, and it stayed up reliably. I appreciated that.

How are they breaking up ND and SD now?

Beats C,D,E now cover what were two separate districts and I don't see a clear line between the two

It's really confusing to look at now. Parts of Elkridge are district 1 and parts of it are district 2. Everything south of 100 is district 2 and it appears 95 separates district 1 & 2 for Charlie & Frank beats.

That is an interesting breakdown. Although it does take away some of the confusions from before. (I.e. West of 29 108 separated ND and SD but East of 29 the separation was 175)
