    Omnilink GPS Offender Monitoring - Tracking & Management

    INDUSTRY: Judicial

    SCENARIO: Faced with expensive jail incarceration costs, Clark County Courts implemented an alternative house arrest program. Limited tracking technology prevented officers from being 100% aware of offender whereabouts at any given moment - a critical need to assure the program's success.

    KEY TECHNOLOGY CHALLENGES:
  • Current GPS tracking devices don't work indoors.
  • Knowledge of where the offender is at any time was unavailable.
  • All tracking must be done from PC or laptop.

    KEY OMNILINK SOLUTION BENEFITS:
  • Dual cellular and GPS technology tracks where GPS alone can't.
  • Monitoring software shows location of offender 24/7.
  • Alerts are sent to designated officers anytime an offender violates a zone.

    Clark County Courts Home Incarceration Office.

    It costs at least $40 a day - plus medical - to jail offenders in Clark County, Indiana. And while many offenders truly should be kept off the streets in the interest of public safety, it's not always the answer for some convicted of non-violent offenses. Mindful of this, the Clark County Courts implemented an alternative home incarceration program for offenders who don't need to be in jail, but need more than just probation.

    Since the program's inception, the Office of Home Incarceration has used several different technologies to track offender whereabouts; however, none of the RF or GPS offender monitoring products had performed satisfactorily. The GPS units in particular were riddled with issues. They created a barrage of false readings. And an offender couldn't be tracked indoors unless resting a foot on a windowsill, as GPS technology requires line-of-sight to a satellite. In fact, the GPS units had performed so poorly that Bill Delehanty, Director of Clark County Courts Home Incarceration Office, was on the verge of informing the judge the office would be discontinuing the use of GPS tracking technology.

    So when a colleague introduced him to an Omnilink sales representative who offered to demo a new GPS electronic tracking solution, one that promised drastically different results, Delehanty's answer was initially a "No, thanks - not interested." But eventually, his curiosity got the better of him and he decided to let the rep stop by. To Delehanty's considerable surprise, after checking out Omnilink's technology, his outlook on GPS was completely transformed.


    Tracking Offenders Where GPS Alone Can't.

    What impressed Delehanty the most is Omnilink's ability to track offenders where other products can't. Whether the offender is outside or inside, the Omnilink offender monitoring solution can keep track of his or her whereabouts.

    Delehanty talks about putting the solution to the test: "I did a rigorous two-week trial of Omnilink's product. I put the device on myself, my wife, others in the office - the technology never failed to identify exactly where we were. Within a week, we had deployed Omnilink devices on more than half the offenders in our House Arrest program."
