It still isn't very clear what the focus and direction they want to go in is from that page.

What would be an example of a core data set they are trying to compile? police involved shootings? police budgets? everything.

Seems pretty obvious from the page:

> Our mission is to make data from every U.S. police agency accessible via a single public resource.

More precisely:

> There are over 18,000 police organizations, and each has a unique way to publish information.

i.e. Police are publishing data? Let's organize it and make it easily accessible.
