The Problem

The Lyon County Sheriff’s office came to doc doc goose in need of a professional storage system for photography related investigations. Prior to this project’s implementation, their sworn personnel had an arduous process of cataloging evidentiary photographs. A deputy would take photos at the scene of an incident, crime, or accident. The deputy would then return to the office, save the photographs to their desktop, and transfer or burn them to a CD-R before physically attaching them to a case or collision investigative file. This took considerable time and left room for human error, not to mention the added cost of CD-Rs and envelopes.

The Solution

doc doc goose provided an easy-to-use Nexus software application to store digital photographs and catalog information. They worked with XBS Office Solutions to develop a photographic evidence control function, which simplifies the process for storing and retrieving agency photographs. The end product allows deputies and officers to upload their photographs directly from crime and accident scenes in the field via their issued cellular phones and receive immediate confirmation they have been successfully uploaded to cloud storage while simultaneously notifying a supervisor. This solution saves time and money; both of which are precious commodities in law enforcement work today.

“Our experience with DDG has been fantastic. The company representatives, along with the technical expertise has made this a pleasant and worthwhile experience. Each representative listened to the needs of our agency and tailored the product in ways which made this a very simple, yet effective and professional platform. They understood the goals we needed to accomplish. Most of all, they exhibited patience as we worked through the edits and adjustments requested to make this a simple but efficient platform.”
