FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

MapScenes Systems hit the nail on the head with their recent announcement of MapScenes LITE and Evidence Recorder LITE.

Westbank, BC - Easy to use and specifically designed for law enforcement investigators, the desktop product, MapScenes LITE, gives versatility a whole new meaning. From major to minor crash or crime scene, this evidence recording and mapping system is designed for every level of investigator. MapScenes LITE provides a set of tools designed for the troopers, deputies and officers who are on the streets and highways everyday. With the tap of an icon, MapScenes LITE shifts gears and detailed scientific tools required by AR Specialists and Investigators appear at your fingertips. Included in MapScenes LITE is an extensive set of formulas for calculating speed, momentum, bloodstain patterns and other factors relating to accidents and crimes.

True to their commitment to accident reconstruction and investigation, the software development team at MapScenes Systems didn't forget about integration and end-to-end solutions for their customers. Coining the MapScenes System phrase "from scene to screen", Evidence Recorder LITE allows you to view the crash diagram at the scene while entering manual measurements. This functionality virtually eliminates the need to return to a scene to collect missing evidence data. Evidence Recorder LITE records the evidence while at the same time adding points and lines to the scene drawing. The intelligent points and lines can simply be tapped on to verify point locations and descriptions or obtain direction, distance and grade. With spreadsheet compatible evidence logger and voice recording, you can almost eliminate the need for a notebook.

Designed and built for Windows CE devices such as the Compaq iPAQ, Evidence Recorder LITE synchronizes with the MapScenes Desktop Solution seamlessly and automatically. The LITE Desktop Solution contains a library of over 8000 pre-drawn crash and crime scene symbols that are pre-scaled to display at the correct size, saving time and guesswork. Through digital camera links, photographic evidence can be linked directly to the scene at the point the photographs were taken.

The MapScenes System LITE solution makes the process of collecting evidence and creating forensic maps faster, easier and more accurate than any other system. MapScenes LITE and Evidence Recorder LITE will be available early in the Fall of 2002.
