The end-to-end digital documentation makes all data available more quickly for further processing.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div> When entering data with the HybridForms mobile App, police officers are supported in their work by a range of integrated functions:<\/strong> Offline mode for uninterrupted work even without Internet access, automatic validation of entries with warning messages in case of errors, photo documentation with enhanced drawing function, sketches for quick visualizations, online data transfer to the police VBS and immediate confirmation of the case number.<\/p>\n They save valuable time when recording personal data on ID cards through intelligent scanning with OCR text recognition.<\/strong> The HybridForms scan-post-processing matches scans with stored catalogs \u2013 for accurate and complete data. Car license plates can also be scanned.<\/p>\n All incident data and images captured with the App are transferred directly to the case management system.<\/strong> This means that the incident data is available in a structured form and without delay for further police processing.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div> The state police of the German state of Saarland<\/strong> (with a population of about 980,000) is under the authority of the Saarland Ministry of the Interior, Construction and Sport. Around 2,700 police officers are on duty around the clock to ensure the safety of the people.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div> The state police of the German state Rhineland-Palatinate<\/strong> (with about 4.1 million inhabitants) is assigned to the Ministry of the Interior and Sports. About 9,300 police officers are responsible for public safety \u2013 in crime prevention, hazard control & traffic safety.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div> Further project partners:<\/strong> The Research Center for Artificial Intelligence (DFKI), Microsoft Germany, Avanade \/ Accenture, the LDI (State Office for Data and Informa\u00adtion\/ Landes\u00adbetrieb Daten und Information) and the IT-DLZ Saarland were involved in various project phases.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div> \u00bbThe trial of HybridForms for traffic accident recording (VU App) at the Saarland police force has shown us that we can exploit considerable potential with it. The immediate, simple and intuitive recording on site with tablets and smartphones saves us time and improves quality. We are spared multiple entries, and our colleagues are enthusiastic about the technology. HybridForms is, in short: flexible, simple and reliable!\u00ab<\/em><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/blockquote> \u00bbThe use of mobile devices in accident recording not only facilitates data collection on site, but also enables greater integration of the entire administrative process. Every year, there are over 150,000 traffic accidents in Rhineland-Palatinate and Saarland. When the police recorded these accidents, it was common practice for all data to be taken on site with a pad of paper and a pen \u2013 handwritten notes and sketches \u2013 as well as photos taken with a camera. The manually recorded data was then typed up later at the police station and entered into the central POLADIS case management system.<\/strong><\/p>\n In 2016, the HybridForms form solution was selected for the PoC \u00bbVU-App \u2013 Mobile Traffic Accident Recording\u00ab in order to relieve the police forces of administrative work, to avoid the time-consuming duplicate recording of data, and to optimize the resulting time-delayed transfer to the VBS.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div> 2016: Feasibility study \/ Proof of Concept (PoC)<\/strong> with the Saarland Police, officers from the Saarlouis police station, Microsoft Germany, and DFKI.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/li> 2017: Pilot project<\/strong> with selected users at the Rhineland-Palatinate and Saarland police forces, collaboration with DFKI and Avanade \/ Accenture.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/li> Since 2018: Going live & live operation of the \u00bbSB-App\u00ab<\/strong> in the federal states of Rhineland-Palatinate and Saarland, cooperation for the common base systems.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/li> Operation of the systems<\/strong> in the high-availability data center of the LDI (Landesbetrieb Daten und Information) as the central governmental IT service provider.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/li><\/ul><\/div><\/div> Time-saving data capture<\/strong> through intelligent functions such as scanning\/OCR.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/li> Optimal quality<\/strong> through structured data entry with automatic validation.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/li> Relieving the workload of police forces<\/strong> by saving time on administrative tasks.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/li> Modern image of the police<\/strong> \u2013 working with digital tools & mobile devices.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/li><\/ul><\/div><\/div>HybridForms \u2013 Digital forms for police and CRITIS teams<\/h2><\/div>
