Wanted to share several articles that discusses how law enforcement agencies are fighting the US opioid epidemic with the ArcGIS Platform. More specifically, they are using Operations Dashboard for ArcGIS to help monitor and track overdoses in real-time. This app enables you to monitor, track, and assess your daily operations.

1. Tech's war on drugs: How big data is being used to fight the US opioid epidemic - ZDNet

2. This App Maps Opioid Overdoses in Real Time - Wired

3. NBC News - Digital War on Drugs: App Shows Opioid Overdoses Instantaneously

FYI, the next generation Operations Dashboard for ArcGIS - beta is now available!

Hope this is informative,
