The Knox County Sheriff's Office is now utilizing an online crime-mapping website, CrimeReports.Com, to help relay crime incident data to the general public, including sex offender registry locations. The Sheriff's Office generates latitude / longitude (XY) coordinates for each incident by using MPC's address database (hosted on the KGIS system), and then plots those locations onto the Google-hosted map. Reports and other tabular data are also provided. (Note: Only crimes outside of the City of Knoxville jurisdiction limits are currently shown in the application).
Also, in its efforts to enforce the statutes of Tennessee Code Annotated (TCA) 40-39-211 in regards to sexual offenders, the Knox County, TN Sheriff's Office has created a map theme in the KGIS Lite mapping site (which is now called KGIS Maps) called "TCA Restriction Zones", to highlight areas which are "off-limits" to sexual offenders.
