An Online Crime And Accident Reporting System For The Uganda Police.

ABSTRACT

The aim of this project was to design and develop an Online Crime and Accident

data Capturing, Storing and Reporting system. The existing System was found

to be completely manual, faced with numerous problems like duplication, loss of

records and time consuming.

An Investigation was carried out to establish how the existing system functions

and what Its problems were. To help in this Investigation, interviews and

Questionnaires were used In data collection.

In designing the web-based system, the study defines the architecture,

components, Interfaces and data for the system to satisfy specified

requirements. The system design was done in three phases. Conceptual,

logical and physical design.

An online czime and accident data capturing, storing and reporting system was

designed using tools like MySQL for the database, PHP embedded In html for

the web-pages and Joomla as the Content Management System (CMS). This

system is fast, convenient in terms of storage and it is user friendly. This web based system was therefore recommended for the police Force of Uganda.
