Item ONLINE CRIME REPORTING MANAGEMENT SYSTEM PROJECT PROPOSAL(2024-10-02) Tumusiime JoshuaIn Mbale City, Uganda, the current approach to crime reporting and management is predominantly manual, which has resulted in significant inefficiencies. Citizens must physically visit police stations to report crimes, leading to long queues, delays in filing reports, and sometimes even discouraging individuals from reporting crimes altogether. This manual system also poses challenges for police officers in managing and processing crime reports, often leading to backlogs and reduced effectiveness in responding to criminal activities. With the rise in crime rates and the increasing need for timely and accurate crime data, there is a pressing need for an Online Crime Reporting Management System. Such a system would streamline the process of reporting crimes, making it more accessible for citizens and more efficient for law enforcement agencies. An Online Crime Reporting Management System is a digital platform that enables citizens to report crimes via the internet. It allows for real-time submission of crime reports, which can include detailed descriptions, evidence such as photos or videos, and the location of the incident. This system would also facilitate the tracking of the status of reported crimes, providing transparency and updates to the complainants. According to studies by Lee and Park (2020), implementing an online crime reporting system can significantly improve public safety by enhancing the speed and accuracy of crime data collection, thus enabling law enforcement agencies to respond more swiftly and effectively. Additionally, such a system would alleviate the congestion and delays currently experienced at physical police stations, allowing police officers to focus more on crime prevention and investigation
