## Data Model (Global JXDM)Executive Briefing 

- The International Justice and Public Safety Information Sharing Network
- ...A GJXDM Success Story

## NLETS and Information Sharing

- State owned system connecting all 50 states, territories along with every federal agency with a justice component.
- Every agency, province – 500,000+ access pts.
- 38 years sharing data – the hub for interstate exchange
- NLETS has always “dictated” the data format for use of the system – was proprietary – now is GJXDM

## NLETS Past...

- NLETS does not hold data
- Proprietary data formats were used to connect disparate state and federal systems
- Causing extensive custom programming at each NLETS interface user
- NLETS-FBI, same customers – different specifications
- Causing the states to write a second interface, driving up costs and maintenance issues

## NLETS today

- Still supporting proprietary data formats  - but no new services will be offered in legacy.
- Transitioned all NLETS transactions and responses to GJXDM 3.0.x  - all schemas are completed
- Currently accepting nearly 1 million FBI-CJIS-III CCH transactions per month in XML
- Doing hundreds of thousands of bidirectional transformations (Legacy – XML – Legacy) daily

## NLETS Today

- Kentucky, Maine and Wisconsin are sending and receiving XML rapsheets across NLETS
- Pilot to standardize drivers license records across state lines over NLETS is underway BJA/NIJ funded project (CANDLE).
**Using GJXDM XML**

## Efforts to proliferate XML

- NLETS has held two developers conferences to generate interest and vet the specification among state, local and federal developers
- Multiple states are adopting NLETS specification and planning upgrades to interface
- Exponential growth of GJXDM being seen in state and locals

## Ongoing efforts

- Accelerated Information Sharing for Law Enforcement
- Third iteration underway.  AISLE, AISLE plus, AISLE 2  with NY, DE, WI to share GJXDM 3.0 end to end between these states
- Western Demo Project, in support of the NCISP – sharing information in GJXDM 3.0 using NLETS between regional information systems.
**All using GJXDM XML**

## Partnerships

- FBI for XML Rap-sheets
- FBI for common data exchange formats (GJXDM 3.0.x)
- RISS, DEA and HIDTA’s for National Virtual Pointer System (NVPS)
- Operation Respond for Hazmat
- NOAA for weather
**All using GJXDM XML**

## Partnerships....

- Amber Alert Consortium for interstate Amber notification for justice enterprise
- Pilot pending in Missouri
- NLETS ORI’s geo-spatially enhanced
- Amber Alert areas expand as time passes - NLETS to carry notification to justice from one location to another based upon ORI
**All using GJXDM XML**

## NLETS XML Futures

- Creating a _***S***_ervice _***O***_riented _***A***_rchitecture
- Extend deployment within our community, information sharing among a trusted groups using GJXDM and web services
- Reach into local data where appropriate/allowed
- Pilot cooperative, broad-based trial initiatives to improve information sharing led by NLETS, PBS, ComCARE Alliance
- Create an NLETS “Google” type capability with those with the insight, courage and technology to do so

## Conclusion

- NLETS is one of the “center square” justice systems - early investment and involvement was imperative
- Started with very little state support
- State and locals should want and expect leadership from systems like NLETS, but historically we have let them down
*Without strong national leadership information sharing will continue -business as usual!****  ****Whatever you call it, standardized XML is the *_*first*_* step to improved sharing*
