The Courts and Law Enforcement Management Information System (CLEMIS), based in Oakland County is a model for multi-jurisdictional cooperation among emergency responders. More than 80 law enforcement departments in six counties contribute information to CLEMIS and rely on the system for records management, computer-aided dispatch, radio communications, and mobile data applications. CLEMIS also links to Michigan's Automated Fingerprint Identification System (AFIS). Sixty fire and emergency medical agencies also rely on CLEMIS. Public Safety resources use a geographic information system (GIS) and automated vehicle locator (AVL) technology to deploy police, fire, medical or emergency management personnel more quickly. The Mobile Data System supports more than 1,000 users and queries multiple information databases through a single transaction. A new video arraignment system will link over 100 courts, prosecutor's offices, jails and law enforcement agencies. One of the latest projects is an initiative to equip public safety personnel with handheld devices that will search multiple databases with a single query. Police officers will no longer need to be inside their patrol vehicles to check if suspects are wanted or property is stolen. A prototype delivers mobile access to the Law Enforcement Information Network, CLEMIS, and allows for a message center application for the department. CLEMIS' advanced technologies are helping to make member agencies more effective as well as keep first responders and citizens safer.
