# Marion Flock Usage, Alerts, and Vehicle Volume `Data - Flock.pdf` combines a July 27 transparency-portal preview with separate offense, alert, and vehicle-volume dashboard pages. Only the portal labels its period as the prior 30 days. ## Portal summary The portal reports 30-day retention, 142,837 unique vehicles, 131 user search sessions, and 957 hotlist hits over the last 30 days (`Data - Flock.pdf`, pp. 1-2, `"Data Retention"`, `"Unique Vehicles Detected"`, `"Number of Searches"`, and `"Number of Hotlist Hits"`). It describes retroactive search and real-time hotlist alerting (p. 1). ## Offense-search table Pages 4-6 list 519 offense-coded searches when their row counts are summed. The largest categories include 111 Motor Vehicle Theft/Stolen, 79 Larceny/Theft, 71 Wanted Person, 69 Drugs/Narcotics, and 62 Stolen Property searches (`Data - Flock.pdf`, p. 6, `"Number of Searches"` table). Those pages do not print a date range. The 519 total is not equated with the portal's 131 searches because the evidence does not establish that they share a period, session definition, or filter state. ## Alerts and volume The August 4 alert page reports 5,240 total hotlist alerts: 1,630 official, 386 Marion custom, and 3,224 other custom alerts on networks (`Data - Flock.pdf`, p. 7, `"Total Hotlist Alerts"`). It does not expose a selected date range. Two vehicle-volume pages report: - 2,399,012 total and 16,405,130 year-to-date on the August 4 capture (p. 8); and - 2,419,664 total and 15,792,061 year-to-date on the July 27 capture (p. 9). The dashboard windows overlap. The totals are not added together. ## Open questions - Exact selected periods and definitions for the offense and alert tables. - Whether counts represent sessions, events, unique vehicles, raw alerts, or deduplicated outcomes. - Search-level audit records and outcome fields sufficient to assess use and effectiveness.
