An evidence management system enables law enforcement agencies to collect, store, manage, and analyze digital evidence including body camera and dash-camera footage. Moving this data from on-premises to cloud-based allows for secure, reliable, and seamless access to digital evidence collected by officers in the field.
With the integration of video evidence, digital data has become as critical to law enforcement as forensic evidence like fingerprints, DNA, and ballistic reports. As video evidence becomes increasingly important for agency operations, accessibility and management can make or break important cases.
What is a Digital Evidence Management System (DEMS)?
A digital evidence management system combines secure, cloud-based storage with an encrypted software suite designed to streamline the management and storage of digital evidence.
Examples of digital evidence include video footage from body and dash cameras, telematics data, and identifiable information such as faces, tattoos, license plates, etc. This vast amount of data is then processed, analyzed, and stored by the digital evidence management system. Secured evidence can be accessed over the cloud using an authorized internet connection.
