In addition to the variety of law enforcement functions, including covert surveillance and overt directed patrol the unit engages the community by going door to door speaking to the residence. The detectives assigned to S.P.I.D.E.R. maintain a caseload focused on specific targets identified through intelligence, investigations, or areas of interest. The uniformed deputies assigned to the unit are proficient in high risk traffic stops and tactical operations. All members assigned to the S.P.I.D.E.R. Unit receive specialized training in the principles of community oriented policing and intelligence led policing prior to their initial deployment.
