Frontier Platform for Crime Reporting System Pro Law Enforcement Agent

Abstract

In a perfect society, everyone is subject to the law, and anyone discovered to have broken the law faces concrete repercussions. Members of society are typically obligated to notify the proper law enforcement agent of any instance of a breakdown in law and order. In the past, making a report of a crime in the community (Nigeria) required visiting any of the offices of the law enforcement agencies (such as the Police, neighborhood corps), which made maintaining anonymity nearly impossible. But as technology advanced, more ways to report crimes were available, from the telegraph to specialized radio transmission to dedicated phone lines, to more pervasive and responsive technical application platforms (web and mobile software applications). The goal of this study was to built a crime reporting platform for the law enforcement agent , which will allow citizens to anonymously report a crime in their community. The platform was implemented using: CSS, JAVASCRIPT, MySQL, PHP. Qualitative techniques were used to evaluate the system on its usability and ease of navigation.
