NCS I-Sc@n™, an integrated suite of high tech software tools, is aimed at managing the vast amount of information surrounding an investigation.  I-Sc@n™ embeds cutting-edge technologies and is based on an open architecture for scalability.  The solution supports specific investigation functions, yet it seamlessly integrates with other components to serve multiple operational needs.  As crime becomes increasingly sophisticated, NCS I-Sc@n™ allows investigation agencies to free up limited resources from administrative tasks to focus on their core business – to battle crime and criminals. 

Features of I-Sc@n™

• Web Interface
  Developed using Java technology, NCS I-Sc@n™ is user-friendly and has an intuitive interface that can be deployed on any personal computer with an Internet browser. This eliminates the need for extensive training.
   
• Document Management and Automated Workflow
  A digital document management system eradicates manual filing and tracking, thereby reducing mistakes.  Multiple investigations can also be conducted concurrently with case-related documents electronically and securely accessed by investigators and departments.  Built-in, customised templates which enhance the productivity of investigators are also supported.
   
• Mobile Support
  NCS I-Sc@n™ is designed to support mobile information, giving investigators access to information anytime, anywhere.  I-Sc@n™ supports the display of international languages such as Chinese, Japanese, Korean, Tamil, French and German under Unicode.  This allows investigators easy usage in their native language.
   
• Digital Imaging
  NCS I-Sc@n™ allows for the scanning of images and videos.  This facilitates the visual recording and retrieval of crime scenes, suspects, arrestees, scars, marks, tattoos, property or vehicles.   The stored images are easily integrated with corresponding data, such as case information and personal particulars, for comprehensive data management.
   
• Advanced Analysis Support
  A powerful component of NCS I-Sc@n™ solution is its advanced visualisation and analysis capabilities, which help investigators explore and interpret the data collected during an investigation.  It also facilitates the identification of patterns and trends.
   
• Intelligent Search
  An intuitive search feature facilitates information search by name, case, event and supports selection functions such as AND/OR statements.
   
• Biometrics
  NCS I-Sc@n™ is easily integrated with biometric appliances such as automated fingerprint matching and facial matching, to enhance the effectiveness and efficiency of investigations.  A "total picture" of the suspect’s data, photo image and past history records are automatically retrieved once a fingerprint has been successful matched.
   
• Deployment and Migration Tools
  The I-Sc@n™ architecture ensures that the solution is deployed with minimal effort.  It is equipped with the tools to migrate from legacy systems to new platforms.
