SoundThinking, Inc. announced the deployment of ShotSpotter, its acoustic gunshot detection system, in Montevideo, the capital city of Uruguay. The deployment marks the expansion of ShotShotter into the large Latin American market. ShotSpotter will be integrated with existing technologies in Montevideo that help police respond more effectively to gun violence, including video cameras and the city?s computer-aided dispatch (CAD) system.

The installment of the system is part of Uruguay?s comprehensive approach to addressing growing gun violence among the approximately 1.38 million people residing in Montevideo. The deployment also includes the rollout of a Spanish-language version of the ShotSpotter InSight application to meet regional user needs.
