Linear Systems is pleased to announce the release of new enhancement modules for 2008. All products are fully compatible with existing versions of DIMS Core and/or DIMS ImageServer. Some modules require DIMS Core, additional DIMS Modules, hardware, or the DIMS ImageServer System. All DIMS Core and DIMS ImageServer Modules are designed to implement, automate, execute, and enforce your agencies Policies and Procedures and are were created to be compliant with evidence standards such as SWGIT, ASCLD, ISO, and 28 CFR.
 DIMS Audio Acquisition Module
DIMS can now download audio files from a wide range of audio recording devices across multiple formats – from digital pocket recorders, to interview rooms, or from 911 or radio traffic recordings. Audio assets can now provide the same chain of custody and log tracking as digital image assets. Audio is stored in its original format as evidence and in an industry standard format for the working copy.
 DIMS Video Acquisition Module
This module allows agencies to download video from a variety of sources and provides chain of custody and log tracking for video assets. Applications can include downloading video from digital crime scene video, interview rooms, in-car video, and other sources of digital video evidence that require the same security as digital image assets. Video is stored in its original format as evidence and in an industry standard format for the working copy.
 DIMS T-Cam Capture Module
Allows DIMS to manage and apply chain of custody to evidence downloaded from the X26 Taser equipped with the Taser Cam. The DIMS module acquires and archives the video, audio, and metadata (dataport firing log) from information already downloaded using the Taser Cam software.
 AFIS Integration Module
This new module allows users to select a specific area of a fingerprint and export it to an AFIS. The module can also integrate with Adobe Photoshop to track and log the complete enhancement history while maintaining the chain custody of custody. The AFIS module is configurable to support specific AFIS systems and adds a layer of automation to the identification process.
 In Car Video Data Management Module
In-car video adds a level of complexity and liability to the process of data collection. DIMS takes the complexity and liability out of the equation with in-car video management through the DIMS system. DIMS Mass Storage Solutions can be utilized to create a manageable and upgradeable archive to store and apply chain of custody criteria to in-car video data. DIMS ImageServer can actively manage the secure transfer of extremely large volumes of data (including video) from multiple substations to a centralized repository over the existing network infrastructure without delaying emails or crashing the system.
 DIMS Minilab Module
The DIMS Minilab module allows for the integration of various high volume printing devices, such as Noritsu or Fuji Minilab photo systems, to the DIMS system. The Minilab module is an embedded software RIP designed for variable and fixed multi-format proof sheet print packages including automatic copyright and unauthorized possession disclaimers, while maintaining chain of custody and log tracking.
 Off-site Storage Module
This storage module provides compliance with guidelines for the secure management, disaster recovery, and backup of records to an off-site location. This automated module provides an additional level of redundancy, in addition to the double redundancy of DIMS, and will assist labs reviewing or maintaining their readiness under these standards.
 Records Management System (RMS) Integration Module
This module is only possible since DIMS uses industry standard file formats and never uses proprietary data formats for storage of assets or data. This bi-directional connection allows an agency to integrate an existing RMS to DIMS ImageServer Web Browser and database by using the DIMS/RMS feed. The module can pre-populate case fields in DIMS using records and case data from your existing RMS system and DIMS has the ability, (with assistance from the RMS vendor), to populate the RMS screen with thumbnails from DIMS, based on security access levels setup in DIMS ImageServer. This module is customized to an agency’s requirements and specific RMS solutions including Tiburon and CAD 2000. With minor modification, this module can be used to interface and integrate with other database systems, such as a LIMS.
 Transcription Module
DIMS now allows your agency to acquire audio from multiple sources and download into the DIMS system. From an interface within DIMS ImageServer Web Browser, the audio can be played back for transcription of reports and interviews, using a foot pedal controller.
