Interesting! And makes a lot of sense - both crime and crime prevention are taking an increasingly high tech approach. For instance, many (most?) cars have tracking devices on them in case they are stolen. Since this mostly happens at night, every morning you can hear helicopters over the city tracking the location of stolen cars so they can dispatch private security teams to retrieve them.
CCTV networks are also employing tracking software to track vehicles and people through areas in real time. That one is kinda scary, but is touted as a feature (which is true in the UK too, I suppose).
