PARAMUS, New Jersey,
October 19, 2015 /PRNewswire/ --
Police departments everywhere are investing in digital policing
initiatives to better safeguard the public. Yet, the exponential
growth in digital data from an increasing number of sources, like
body camera video and private and public CCTV footage, now presents
the challenge of how to effectively process all of this siloed
information.
NICE Investigate, a new digital policing solution from NICE
Systems (NASDAQ: NICE), breaks down information silos and
replaces lengthy, manual processes with automated workflows to
expedite the entire digital investigation process. This goes well
beyond the capabilities of the digital evidence management
solutions in use today. NICE Investigate streamlines the
collection, organization, and sharing of potential evidence so
investigators can make sense of disparate data.
"Investigators today face some tough challenges: collecting and
securely sharing potential evidence is surprisingly manual and
time-consuming, while analyzing the disparate pieces to recreate
the 'who, what, where, when and why' of an incident is more
complicated than ever," noted Ed
Davis, former Boston Police
Commissioner. "A software solution that addresses these issues and
leads to higher case clearance rates would be invaluable to any
police department."
"Investigators today spend too much time identifying,
collecting, and copying digital evidence from various sources -
including video from citizens, private and public CCTV video, audio
recordings, photos, and more - and lack tools to organize and make
sense of all the different pieces," said Chris Wooten, Executive Vice President, NICE.
"At the same time, budgets are flat and workloads are increasing.
Inefficient processes threaten to delay investigations, incident
resolution, and prosecution. NICE has leveraged its experience
working with thousands of police departments and its expertise in
information management for emergency communications centers to
develop a solution that addresses these issues."
NICE Investigate improves investigator efficiency and
effectiveness through four core capabilities:
- Compatibility with multiple evidence
sources: NICE Investigate integrates data from most
existing applications and sources, including CAD and RMS systems,
body camera video, physical evidence like photos and documents,
public and private CCTV video, in-car video, interview recordings,
citizen tips, 911 audio recordings, gunshot detection systems,
automated license plate readers (ALPRs), social media and more.
This enables police departments to collapse information silos,
choose best-in-class systems from leading providers, and protect
investment in existing systems.
- Automated workflow: The solution expedites
case building by organizing evidence into a digital case folder,
using a powerful correlation engine to suggest potential evidence,
and enabling investigators to electronically initiate requests for
evidence and evidence processing.
- Content analytics and
visualization: Content analytics examines digital
content from connected sources, and visual tools display the
information, making important patterns and relationships easier to
understand. By uncovering more relevant information and visualizing
it in useful ways, crimes that would otherwise go unsolved can be
successfully prosecuted.
- Secure collaboration and
sharing: Investigators can easily and securely share
evidence electronically, enabling multiple investigators within an
agency or across agencies to collaborate on a case while
maintaining chain of custody and integrity of the evidence.
Investigators no longer waste valuable time copying and
transporting digital evidence for prosecutors.
