Ramsey County Correctional Facility, MN has implemented the PictureLink Mugshot System as an integrated part of their existing DSI-ITI Offender Management System (OMS). As a business partner, DSI-ITI offers Dynamic Imaging Systems’ products and services as a part of their integrated solutions. Ramsey County Correctional Facility purchased PictureLink’s Advanced Mugshot System using their existing DSI-ITI contract.
Ramsey County’s implementation of PictureLink included two mugshot booking stations, the conversion of the agency’s historical data and images, and an interface to the Minnesota statewide repository of arrest data and mugshots (MRAP). Custom wristbands with barcodes, used for the identification of subjects from within the OMS, are created using PictureLink's Forms Design tool. A standalone database for employee ID Badges was also provided.
The Mugshot Systems and the OMS are tightly integrated with a simple user interface. Once the booking data is entered into the OMS and the Corrections Officer is ready to capture the mugshot, they choose the subject's record from a queue within PictureLink and click on Auto Capture. Auto Capture directs the camera to pan, tilt, zoom and crop the image without any user intervention. Photos are subsequently sent back to the OMS system and available in the data record. After the booking is complete, the mugshot and associated data is sent to the State’s MRAP database of arrest and booking photos.
The Minnesota Repository of Arrest Photographs (MRAP) is a statewide repository maintained by Dynamic Imaging Systems that accepts photos submitted from hundreds of Minnesota law enforcement agencies. Participating MRAP agencies can create lineups and witness viewing sessions as well as submit images for facial recognition. For more information on MRAP and a list of participating agency’s visit their website.
