8.5 An Application of a Domain-Specific Language Facilitating Abstraction and Secure Access to a Crime and Ballistic Data Sharing Platform (To be submitted to the IADIS Conference November 2010)

1. Abstract

Crime investigation requires controlled sharing, secure access and formalised reporting on heterogeneous datasets. This paper will focus on encapsulating data structures and services, whilst exposing abstraction, relevant only to the End-User through the application of a domain-specific language. The language is used for all interactions with the platform, enabling non-technical users to build complex queries. The language also increases the platform’s security, by hiding the internal architecture of services and data structures. This solution has been demonstrated to law enforcement communities across Europe as a prototype crime and ballistic data sharing platform.


8.6 Sharing Ballistics Data Across the European Union (To be submitted to the IADIS Conference November 2010)

1. Abstract

Across Europe police organisations are using numerous systems, both computerised and manual, to capture information about firearm crimes. The Odyssey platform intends to address this issue by providing police organisations with the ability to access ballistics data from other European law enforcement agencies. The Odyssey platform is a prototype system that has been developed to identify standards for the development of a European wide ballistics information system. In this paper, we outline the investigation tools found within the platform and discuss how these were developed. The prototype has been demonstrated to law enforcement communities across Europe and is in its final stages of development.
