Memex thas reached an agreement with the Mountain Empire Criminal Justice Information Network (MECJIN) in Virginia. The contract calls for the deployment of Memex software and services, giving the 15 southwest Virginia counties and 50 municipalities in the MECJIN an intelligence system for crime analysis and data sharing. MECJIN is a multi-jurisdictional computer network that links law enforcement agencies in the Appalachian Mountain area of Virginia. The Memex platform enables MECJIN law enforcement officers to correlate Suspicious Activity Reports (SARs) from a wide region using various Memex tools. This upgrade is also in compliance with the N-DEX (National Data Exchange) data sharing initiative, setting the foundation for the sharing of incident data within MEJCIN from the many regional and municipal systems, such as Computer-Aided Dispatch (CAD) and Record Management Systems (RMS). Functionality includes visualization and mapping tools, intelligence management, analysis of suspicious activity reports, and correlation of data to expose organized criminal activity. While MECJIN is planning to use the new capabilities to fight gangs and narcotics, it will also target other criminal activities with the Memex platform as well.
