The data portrayed comes from the Uniform Crime Reporting (UCR) program and represents crime as it is made known unto local law enforcement agencies in Utah. Data is collected under the guidelines and definitions established in the National Incident Based Reporting System (also known as NIBRS). NIBRS uses computerized data systems to collect more detailed information of crime in specific jurisdictions. An older collection type known as Summary existed prior to January 1, 2021, and was also used in Utah by some agencies to report their UCR data.
