The New York City Police Department (NYPD) which was established in
1845 , is currently the largest municipal police force in the world with primary responsibilities in law enforcement and investigation within
the five boroughs of
New York City. The NYPD is considered to be the first "modern" style
police department in the
United States. The NYPD boasts a broad array of specialized services, offering expertise in tactical operations,
K-9, marine/diving, aviation (
helicopters), bomb disposal, counter-terrorism,
intelligence, anti-
gang,
narcotics, public transportation, and
public housing. NYPD has extensive
crime scene investigation and laboratory resources, as well as units which assist with
computer crime investigations. The NYPD's headquarters houses an anticrime computer network, essentially a large search engine and data warehouse operated by detectives to assist officers in the field with their investigations. According to the department, its mission is to "enforce the
laws, preserve the peace, reduce fear, and provide for a safe environment." Primarily, this involves preventing and responding to
crime.
