Careful analysis
Examine the available records, identify gaps, and evaluate what each source supports.
About Precision Analytics
Make technical evidence
understandable.
We bring investigative experience and careful technical review together to help prosecutors and law enforcement agencies understand and explain cellular and geolocation evidence.
Our approach
Start with the questions.
Follow the records.
Every engagement begins with the questions the case presents and the records available to address them. We consider completeness, timestamps, relevant carrier fields, and the limitations of each source.
When appropriate, cellular and geolocation information is compared with surveillance footage, license plate reader observations, and other supporting material.
Conclusions are guided by the evidence, including findings that may challenge an initial theory. Clear presentation makes the distinction between recorded observations and analytical interpretation easier to understand.
Clear explanation
Make technical findings understandable through purposeful maps, timelines, and presentations.
Defined engagements
Agree on the responsible expert, deliverables, schedule, and authorized budget.
