A Platform to Promote Interoperability between Public Safety Agencies

With technological advances facilitating more and more existing processes, it is common to seek the development of techniques that help in the automation of procedures previously performed entirely manually. However, it is common that some services are already used to being done in an analogical way, making it difficult for a change in the already ingrained practices. The difficulty increases even more when the procedures involve the action of more than one entity from different organizations, each with its own practices already used for years and different from the others.

Interoperability between systems is a technique that is increasingly being sought on services that involves different agencies. It aims to allow the involved entities to operate together, bringing little or no change to the practices already used and acting in a transparent way for the user.

Therefore, this work proposes a middeware platform to provide interoperability between police and forensic agencies of public safety, aiming at improving the service provided by them and a faster response for society in the services of investigation of life crimes.
