Digitize police beats of City of Pittsburgh

Community-oriented police officers are responsible for preventing crime and solving underlying community problems related to crime. Among other activities, these officers walk “beats,” which are small networks of streets in specified areas. Often the beats are designed in cooperation with community leaders who help set policing priorities. Beats change as problems are solved and priorities change. Hence, it is good to have the capability to digitize and modify police beats. In this assignment, you digitize two new polyline police beats for the City of Pittsburgh Zone 2 Police District based on street centerlines that make up these beats.
