LUCE

This project will expand beyond the initial release by incorporating advanced functionality designed to improve data analysis, accessibility, and advocacy impact. Future development will focus on creating a dashboard and statistics view that highlights enforcement patterns and frequency across Massachusetts. Tools for manual-to-digital conversion of scanned documents and automated PDF parsing will streamline how information enters the database, reducing reliance on manual entry. Partners such as the ACLU and NIAJ will be able to request scenario analyses, enabling more strategic advocacy efforts. Additionally, the platform will integrate improved analytics and visualizations, helping community members, legal teams, and policymakers better understand trends and respond effectively. This initiative is inspired by ICEWatch, a similar tool created by the Immigrant Defense Project used to track ICE enforcement activities in New York.
