Police Holmes 2 system gets an upgrade
Searching across police databases and linking information to be made easier with new version of Home Office Large Major Enquiry System.
Searching across police databases is set to become easier after an upgrade to a major computer system.
The Home Office Large Major Enquiry System 2 (Holmes 2) version 11 upgrade will improve searches across different databases, allowing for better information sharing between forces. Holmes 2 also features a smart search tool which understands context and helps cross-reference information.
"Holmes 2 helps police forces manage the large amount of information generated by major crime investigations," said John Neil, director of operational services of the Police Information Technology Organisation.
Neil said Holmes 2 is used in about half of all murder investigations, where it is key to organising evidence and making the links which can lead to a breakthrough in a case.
