Special age progression technology will allow identification from photographs, even years after a child's disappearance. It is our hope that other governments will follow Argentina's lead and become part of this initiative to help recover missing children around the world. The Web site will help facilitate the distribution of photos of missing children within Argentina and across national borders, and allow a quick and efficient exchange of information between government agencies and the public.
Time is the most critical factor when attempting to locate missing children.
The CA software will simplify the updating, maintenance and administration of all critical data. All information on missing children including updates can be entered onto the site quickly and easily using a standard Web browser. Once critical data on a missing child is available, the Argentine Federal Police can post it immediately. Searches can be conducted by name, location, sex, height, weight, age, hair color and other criteria, quickly matching general characteristics with individual children. Police departments can then print posters of missing children directly from the Web site and make them public moments after the child is reported missing.
