THE CHALLENGE

Start with what
the team needs.

The police station’s existing surveillance camera was dysfunctional. Its original installer had relocated, leaving the department without technical support or maintenance services.

The department needed reliable video and audio capture, secure storage for interview sessions and evidence, and restricted physical access to recording equipment. The case study identified CJIS requirements as part of this challenge.

Training was also needed so the law enforcement team could operate the system and retrieve recordings for official police business.

OUR APPROACH

Built around
the work.

An interview room camera built for the job

A high-quality camera was installed in a ceiling corner of the Interview Room to capture video and audio with an unobtrusive view of interviews.

Recording equipment inside the evidence vault

Video recording equipment was installed in the main floor evidence vault. Physical access was restricted to the Chief of Police and the Detective to support preservation of the chain of evidence.

Hands-on training

Black Rock trained the Chief of Police to access, operate, and download recordings for official police business.

THE RESULT

A better way to work.

More dependable evidence capture

The new camera and recording equipment supported the capture and preservation of interview evidence.

Restricted equipment access

Keeping the recording equipment in the evidence vault strengthened physical security around recorded data.

Greater confidence using the system

Training equipped the department to manage recordings and use the installed technology more effectively.
