Audit Trail identifies each and every time a digital asset file is processed, opened, exported or printed, and provides reports that can be displayed in court when the chain of custody must be disclosed.
Advanced Archival Management coordinates the automatic archiving of digital assets using flexible variables such as crime type, date of crime, asset category and agency policies regarding the retention of digital evidence.
Process
Grayscale Pattern Removal Filter allows forensic examiners to quickly and easily identify and remove repetitive patterns from digital images that interfere with the recovery of forensic evidence.
Chromatic FFT maintains valuable information in the Red, Green and Blue color channels that is often lost in grayscale. Removes repetitive patterns from color images.
Image Calibration Utility calibrates images without calibrating the distance from lens to object. This is especially crucial when acquiring latent prints for use with an AFIS. Images are calibrated to ensure true, accurate life-size scale.

Advanced User Rights Management provides a control console to set policies for who inside or outside of an agency may have access to digital assets. Integrates with the agency's existing security infrastructure for centralized control.
Digital Asset Locator helps users inside and outside the agency (if permitted) to locate digital assets based on "fuzzy" search methods similar to those used by search engines on the internet.
Remote Printing controls print traffic to laboratory printers and allows secure printing of digital assets to locations such as courts, district attorneys and investigators outside the forensic lab.
Evidence Map shows geographic position of digital evidence for one or multiple cases at a time using GPS coordinates gathered from the camera or entered manually.
Reports The ADAMS Platform provides a variety of reports including the Asset Detail Report, Contact Sheet, Web Export, 1:1 Report, Zoom Report and Archived Asset Report.
Connect
AFIS Connect submits your latent fingerprint images in proper format to local, state or federal AFIS systems.
LIMS Connect provides two-way communication between ADAMS and your Laboratory Information Management System (LIMS) allowing valuable information to pass between the two systems and leveraging existing information in both.
Relay Server provides an intermediate stopping point for digital assets on their way to a central asset repository. Most useful in geographically-dispersed agency wide area networks (WANs) Relay Server can be installed in remote or satellite agency offices. Users can rapidly download assets to the Relay Server, while the Relay Server holds those assets until it can transfer them across the agency WAN to the central asset repository.
WAN Connect securely queues digital asset downloads locally until network resources are available. Allows squad cars outside of the network area to download assets automatically once within network range, and allows master scheduling of downloads to prevent network overload during shift changes.

LIMS Connect provides two-way communication between ADAMS and your Laboratory Information Management System (LIMS) allowing valuable information to pass between the two systems and leveraging existing information in both.
closeRelay Server
Relay Server provides an intermediate stopping point for digital assets on their way to a central asset repository. Most useful in geographically-dispersed agency wide area networks (WANs) Relay Server can be installed in remote or satellite agency offices. Users can rapidly download assets to the Relay Server, while the Relay Server holds those assets until it can transfer them across the agency WAN to the central asset repository.
Relay Server can be configured to transfer assets using adjustable bandwidth so as not to flood the agency WAN with traffic. Relay Server can be set up to transfer assets only during certain hours of the day or night, and can be configured to avoid high-data-traffic times (shift changes, friday nights, etc.).
Relay Server can also be used as a server in a mobile CSI unit for which a small ad-hoc LAN of notebook computers, disconnected from the agency WAN, is set up to investigate a major crime scene or terrorist incident. Once the Relay Server is reconnected to the agency WAN, assets are automatically sent to the central repository.
WAN Connect
WAN Connect securely queues digital asset downloads locally until network resources are available. Allows squad cars outside of the network area to download assets automatically once within network range, and allows master scheduling of downloads to prevent network overload during shift changes.
closeImage Calibration Utility
Image Calibration UtilityThe Foray Technologies Image Calibration Utility is an Adobe® Photoshop® compatible plug-in designed to assist the user in accurately sizing digital images to a specific scale without the loss of any image data. The user interface provides a zoom tool for the precise placement of reference points, which are used to calibrate an image. Images can be calibrated without the worry of calibrating the distance from lens to object, cropping the image or performing other manual, time-consuming processes.
closeGrayscale Pattern Removal Filter
Image Processing Tools.The Foray Technologies Grayscale Pattern Removal Filter is an Adobe® Photoshop® compatible plug-in. This Fast Fourier Transform (FFT) filter is designed to quickly and easily identify and remove repetitive patterns from digital images that interfere with the recovery, analysis, and interpretation of forensic digital evidence. The user can remove machining marks on a gun, the background printing on a check, the dot pattern on newsprint, or the weave pattern on material that would otherwise interfere with the identification of a fingerprint or tool mark. The Grayscale Pattern Removal Filter is designed to be used with 8-bit grayscale images. The user interface provides access to both the frequency spectrum and the spatial pattern views, simultaneously.
closeChromatic FFT Filter
Image Processing Tools.The Foray Technologies Chromatic Fast Fourier Transform (FFT) filter is an Adobe® Photoshop® compatible plug-in. It is designed for the removal of repetitive patterns from color images - either filtering a single color channel individually or multiple color channels in combinations of two or three channels at a time. Color is a crucial factor in the isolation and enhancement of details recorded in digital images. Unlike traditional Fast Fourier Transform (FFT) filters for grayscale images, the Foray Technologies Chromatic FFT is the only FFT designed to process color images. The user interface provides access to both the frequency spectrum and the spatial pattern views, simultaneously.

closeAudit Trail
Digital Evidence Access Audit Trail Audit Trail tracks and reports on all changes made to cases and to each piece of digital evidence stored within the case. Each time the evidence is processed, moved, or simply viewed, an irrevocable audit trail entry is made. Even access to the evidence by programs outside of the Foray ADAMS platform is tracked by Audit Trail. During evidence discovery, and in court, the user can print reports for cases and assets showing who, how and when any given piece of evidence was accessed starting from the time it entered the system.
closeDigital Acquire
Digital Asset Acquisition Station Digital Acquire provides the capability to download evidence from digital cameras, scanners, audio and video sources, or file systems. The interface is easy-to-use and presumes no user training. It can be easily deployed on dedicated workstations, or on every desktop or squad car laptop. Digital Acquire is intended for fast, simple download of digital evidence and provides a step-by-step process for downloading a single asset or a batch of digital assets to the asset repository. Each asset is authenticated and checked into the correct location within the repository. Assets are unaltered (including file name) and locked down with a digital signature. Once acquired, only permitted users may access the assets.
closeDigital Workplace
Forensic Specialist Analysis Station.Digital Workplace is the work space for the forensic specialist. It provides multilevel viewing of cases and digital evidence, along with comparisons of originals and processed copies. It continually authenticates originals and processed copies and only allows processing of copies. Digital Workplace displays asset acquisition statistics (such as camera EXIF data), history of processing, and an audit trail of all access to the digital asset. Digital Workplace allows the user to record any chemical processes, special lighting, dye stains, powders, etc. applied to the asset, as well as free-form notes.
