Mandated by lawmakers four years ago, the Washington State Data Exchange for Public Safety will collect data from 300 agencies.
Information includes details on incidents involving firearms, Tasers, or other force types, and the demographics of those involved.
The database, operated by Washington State University, will make monthly reports public, with outcomes of investigations updated within 30 days.
