ODIS
Encyclopedia
ODIS, or the Offender Data Information System is a web based, computerized records management software application to improve the capture, maintenance and quality of law enforcement data and that is capable of running in any combination of centralized or decentralized network environments. It is designed using Microsoft
's DNA
(Distributed interNetwork Architecture) programming model, constructed using three tiers: database for storage, compiled application components to handle the business logic and the presentation layer which is what the user sees.
The ODIS application addresses the problem of having many applications for many tasks by using one common interface that is accessible over a network to all departments in an agency. The core of the application includes the National Incident Based Reporting System
(NIBRS) module which is designed to replace Uniform Crime Reporting (UCR)
and strictly adheres to the reporting standards of the federal government and the Oklahoma State Bureau of Investigation (OSBI)
. The ODIS application also allows the entry of digital images of individuals, scars, marks and tattoos. An entire history of a person's involvement with the agency - whether it be for a booking, arrest, citation, warrant, missing person, owner of a piece of stolen property, etc. - can be viewed after conducting a general search. Integration of these different program elements has made the ODIS application a powerful record keeping and investigative tool for agencies that use it to its fullest capacity.
