Context for ballistic imaging analysis -- pt. 2. Current ballistic imaging and databases -- pt. 3. Implications for a national reference ballistic image database -- pt. 4. Future directions.Ballistic Imaging assesses the state of computer-based imaging technology in forensic firearms identification. The book evaluates the current law enforcement database of images of crime-related cartridge cases and bullets and recommends ways to improve the usefulness of the technology for suggesting leads in criminal investigations. It also advises against the construction of a national reference database that would include images from test-fires of every newly manufactured or imported firearm in the United States. The book also suggests further research on an alternate method for generating an investigative lead to the location where a gun was first sold: "microstamping," the direct imprinting of unique identifiers on firearm parts or ammunition.Forensic ballisticsAtlasesData processingGovernment policyUnited StatesBulletsIdentificationDatabasesImages, PhotographicDatabasesElectronic recordsUnited StatesManagementData processingForensic ballisticsAtlasesData processingGovernment policyBulletsIdentificationImages, PhotographicElectronic recordsManagementData processing.363.25/62Cork Daniel L1805558MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910971539203321Ballistic imaging4354228UNINA
