This <br />computerized image database system provides the department with the <br />ability to capture high quality digital images of criminal suspects, court <br />ordered registrants and arrestees being booked into the Santa Ana Jail <br />facili ty. The system is also used to produce photographic line-ups, <br />wanted flyers, ID cards and jail identification bracelets. The system <br />currently consists of three workstations, two image capture stations and <br />one investigative workstation. <br /> <br />The Imageware Software Corporation has now developed a new component to <br />their computerized image database system, "Crime-Web"; this component <br />allows the image search and retrieval portion of the database software to <br />be installed on all of the computers throughout the department. At any <br />one time, 30 users can be simultaneously using the system to search, <br />retrieve and print images. The Crime-Web component will also allow the <br />database to be used by officers in the field via a wireless network. <br /> <br />Page 31 <br /> <br />n <br /> <br />25.CF~ <br />
