Abstract

A discussion on how technology is used to track firearm related crimes in cities where gun crime is a huge problem. The United Nations estimates there are 850 million small arms in the world, 450 million of those small arms are in the United States. The Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms (ATF) manages the National Integrated Ballistic Network (NIBIN). The main tool in the arsenal of the ATF is the Integrated Ballistic Identification System (IBIS). Currently there are about 180 cities in the United States that currently use these systems.. Edwards will discuss how a program which he helped create called “GunOps” provides the ability to track all gun related activity in relation to the IBIS System. GunOps is essentially case management software for ballistics units and it is useful for managing and searching IBIS--‐related information. The program is accessible by Labs, Detectives, Patrol and Management. Edwards will cover how People, Technology and Processes play a key roll in combating gang and firearm related crimes. These processes are instrumental in bringing criminals to justice.
