PROJECT DESCRIPTION: The Harford Co Sheriff's Office utilizes several technological and digital data driven hardware systems, which are linked to an evidence management storage platform (EMSP) allowing all systems to communicate effectively and in real time. The EMSP supports a multitude of equipment utilized by deputies to improve evidence collection, strengthen officer performance and accountability, enhance agency transparency, document encounters with the public, and investigate and resolve incidents. This equipment may include, but is not limited to, State mandated Body Worn Cameras (BWC), Tasers, In Car Video systems, and the UAS flying platform. Funding for this project includes the replacement of Tasers for sworn correctional personnel as the current equipment is outdated and no longer supported by the manufacturer.

This project will be ongoing as funding includes the cost of the equipment, maintenance, cloud storage, licenses, replacement equipment and other related expenses.

This project was formerly titled HCSO Body Worn Camera Program. Due to the integration of technology and evidence management it now encompasses funding for the Body Worn Camera Program, the In-Car Camera Systems (formerly funded by capital project E234119), the Taser program and the Air Flight platform (both formerly funded in operating budget cost center 211200).
