REPORT NOTES
Most of the sta s cal data in this report is derived from the Calgary Police Service records management system (SENTRY) and compiled by the Centralized Analysis Unit. Disorder data is derived from the Computer aided Dispatch (CAD) system.
Repor ng is based on the most serious offence in the incident. Please note that offences are assigned to
the month in which the offence was reported, which is not necessarily the month the offence occurred. The
reported date is the first point in me at which the police were no fied of the offence and repor ng lag
may vary due to circumstances (these are typically property crimes where the vic m did not report the
offence un l a later date, or was unaware of the loss un l a later date, or late‐reported sexual assaults).
Also note that “a empted” offences are included in these totals. Person crime offences, excluding robbery,
are counted by the number of vic ms, using the most serious offence against the vic m. Robbery, and all
other crimes at the incident level, is counted using the most serious offence in the incident. Of note, cases
are o en cleared months and some mes years later. Consequently, clearance rates for previous years may
appear to be much higher than those of the present year. Cases “cleared by charge” and those “cleared
otherwise” are included in these clearance rate totals.

Dispatched, advised and callback calls are included. 1Calls for service included in the “mental health concern” component of social disorder are only those calls from the public which are specifically coded as a mental health concern or mental health warrant. It is important to recognize that any call police are asked to attend may involve some element of mental health concern, even though they are not coded as such. This applies particularly to calls about suicide, missing persons or check on welfare, which are not included in this data as they are not considered social disorder.2 The majority of Property Damage calls result in Criminal Code reports, which are counted under 'Other Property Crimes'. 3The range of average is calculated as 1 standard deviation above and 1 below the calculated average for the previous five-year period.
