What this project demonstrates
Body-worn video is strongest when capture, communications and evidence management are connected.
The Nottingham City Council project combines frontline body-worn video, PTToC and a managed evidence workflow for civil enforcement teams working in public-facing and lone-worker environments.
PTToC keeps officers connected to colleagues and control beyond the range of a local radio system.
Centralised upload, retention, retrieval and disclosure reduce fragmentation between the incident and the back office.
