The Commonwealth Fusion Center and the Wilmington Police Department will offer training in Coplink and CrimeNtel databases on Wednesday May 11th from 10:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m.
Coplink is an Internet based database of databases that collects and updates information from the records management systems of more than 230 agencies including the Board of Probation and the Registry of Motor Vehicles. This database includes department reports and booking photos from disparate local and State Police RMS networks and deposits them into a single, searchable database. It allows you to search the entire database for reports from a single agency or a group of agencies. In addition to incident reports, you can also find booking photos to create mug books or photo arrays. It also allows the user to determine associations between persons, locations, vehicles and phone numbers. Personnel from more than 300 agencies across the state have access to more than 5,000,000 documents and booking photos through Coplink.
