West Yorkshire Police Force is now the fourth biggest police force in the entire UK and they serve an awful lot of people in their territory. This force provides service for both the rural and urban people of at least 2.2 million.

Data collection is time consuming and costly for any legal force. A suspect has to be detained and then brought to the nearest station and then verified his identity. After that the police can come back for active duty again. But using this unique new technology a patrol team can identify any individual within just two or three minutes and proceed as situation requires.

This new technology came into action with the enthusiasm of the West Yorkshire Police Department and the help of the Home Office. They share the fingerprint database live and thus giving access to the mobile units to work faster and accurate than ever.
