Crime Reporting System

Crime Reporting System

Abstract:

There are different forms of crimes that are happening every day in different regions. Huge number of these crimes go unreported either because there are no law enforcement in the region or people are sometimes scared to reveal their identity to the police. Also, crime goes unreported, because people don't have enough evidence to help police with the investigations. In order to address this problem, this paper proposes an automatic crime reporting and immediate response system that is developed based on system integration which combines Raspberry Pi, Microsoft IoT, mobile application and web application. An automatic crime reporting, and immediate response system does not only guarantee informer's safety and secrecy, it also stops cases and reports from being deleted or removed and guarantees information integrity. The automatic crime reporting system has an incredible potential to assist informers to report crime anonymously or by providing their details using mobile phones. It also assist police to provide proper security and reduces the manual work in crime reporting. This system uses non-Structured Query Language (non-SQL) database that allows crime evidences such as pictures, videos and audios to be retrieved faster. The quality of pictures and videos evidences never degrades, it is always 99.9% accurate when retrieving and saving to the database and 97% accurate with respect to detecting location automatically. The system also ensures the average time for reporting crime to the police dispatch center is less that 30 seconds. The developed system reduce time consuming to finish crime research or investigation.
