BENEFITS: COMPLIANT INTERFACES WITH AFIS and ACCH DISPOSITION TRACKING AND REPORTING WORKFLOW MANAGEMENT DATA VALIDATION DISPOSITION QUERY CAPABILITY NFSTC: Vision & Mission • Located in Largo, FL, the NFSTC provides goods and services at no-cost to forensic service providers through: • Training • Technical Assistance • Community Support • Our Vision is for the forensic science community and its users to have complete confidence in the quality of the science provided to the justice community. • Our Mission is that we are dedicated to assisting the forensic sciences in the achievement of the highest level of quality services for the justice community. NFSTC History & Funding • The American Society of Crime Laboratory Directors (ASCLD) established the NFSTC as a private not-for-profit corporation in 1995. • Programs funded through a Cooperative Agreement with: Office of Justice Programs (OJP) National Institute of Justice Forensic Science Facts • Forensic Science is one of the most important crime fighting tools available to the criminal justice community • It is used not only to investigate crime, but also to eliminate suspects and exonerate the wrongly accused and/or convicted Forensic Science & Technology • The use of forensic science technology is expected to increase and evolve as research scientists advance the science and scope and breadth of its application • In order to realize its full potential to solve and prevent crime, forensic science information must become an integral component of global justice information sharing systems. Information Sharing Challenges • Specialized Data Bases – AFIS, NIBIN, CODIS, LIMS • • • • • Lack of Interoperability Vendor Driven Specifications Restricted Access to Systems Under Use of Forensic Information Lack of Data Connections with Courts and Law Enforcement A Powerful Case for a Forensic Information Data Exchange The National Information Exchange Model (NIEM), and the Global Justice XML Data Model (GJXDM), provide a powerful case for the development of a Forensic Information Data Exchange (FIDEX). National Information Exchange Model (NIEM) Universal / Common: Items that exist & have same semantic meaning across all domains Domain Specific: Items with semantic meaning only in its domain FIDEX Domain??? FIDEX & LIMS • Where does the forensic evidence information come from? – Laboratory Information Management Systems (LIMS) are an excellent source of forensic information – The exchange of data using FIDEX will allow information from LIMS to be shared with the justice community FIDEX Concept Criminal Justice Information Data Bases • IAFIS – Integrated Automated Fingerprint Identification System • CODIS – Combined DNA Index System • NIBIN – National Integrated Ballistics Information Network • CJIS – Criminal Justice Information System • NCIC – National Crime Information Center • NCMEC – National Center for Missing and Exploited Children Information Sharing Challenges • “Knowledge is Power” – Reluctance to Share Information • “Stove Piped Systems” – Inability to Share Information • Proprietary systems • No transparent connections We Are All in the Same Boat ! • Information Sharing Presents a Daunting Challenge for: – – – – – Law Enforcement Crime Labs Courts Corrections Entire Criminal Justice System NFSTC & IJIS Partnership • NFSTC contracted IJIS Institute to help with working grout and create IEPDs • IJIS provided: – Experienced Project Manager – Volunteer Industry Participants – Service Provider – Waterhole Software • Data Modeling • IEPD Development • First project deliverables are two Forensic related IEPDs and pilot tests with Arizona partners Law Enforcement Court Crime Lab Forensic Services Request Case Disposition Reporting Evidence and Agency Info LE #1 LAB #1 Courts Case Information • One Set of Information • Events • Triggers • Subsequent Events • Connected Systems • Disposition of Cases dB LAB #2 Queries: -Milestone Dates -Analysis Status -Case Disposition dB LAB #3 LE #2 LE #3 Forensic IEPDs & Business Model • Working Group activities in AZ – Crime Lab Business Model Analysis • LIMS Vendor and IT Staff – Law Enforcement Needs • LE Forensic Case Submisson – Courts Communication About Cases Top-Down, Business Driven Modeling • Develop a high-level business process – – – – • Scenario Based Provides context Define scope Prioritize exchanges Develop data requirements model – Identify and define key data elements – Identify key data relationships • • • Cross-Reference to National Information Exchange Model (NIEM) Develop XML Schema Develop XML Document Instance 24 Business Process Analysis • Model of how information flows between organizations • Not prescriptive • Develop common understanding of process terms • Inventory of documents • Hybrid of BPEL and JIEM methodology 25 Business Process Analysis 26 Business Process Validation • Narrowly focused validation of priority exchanges • Identification of missing and unclear exchanges, etc. • Review validated process flow and estimate overall impact 27 Workflow Modeling • Document internal steps relevant to exchange process y Definition of system requirements for verification of message, validation, etc. y Evaluation of source and target data store y Usually done locally (not at national level) 28 Data Modeling & Mapping • Identification of data requirements from a exchange perspective • Document-based common data model • Review of existing forms may identify initial requirements • Component Based • Implementation agnostic 29 Forensic Case Submission Exchange Case Disposition Reporting Exchange Schema Development • Development of XML Schema to support data requirements • Work product is technical specification • Expect to require multiple revisions 32 High-Level Architecture ADRS Web Service LIMS Mid-Level Architecture Vendor Specific FIDEX Core Create XML ADRS Database Extract Network Vendor Specific Notify Listener LIMS Database Insert FIDEX Presentation Lessons Learned Best Practices Questions?
