Leading on from the existing CCTV Analysis course, AiTS have developed three new short classroom based courses that drill deeper into the relevant areas of CCTV analysis, using the software and tools now commonly being used by forensic units, helping practitioners tackle CCTV speed calculation casework from start to finish, in a practical and face-to-face casework driven environment. The courses have been created with core FSR themes in mind:
They are also designed to meet level 3 within the NPCC framework for video analysis
The overarching aim is to help practitioners to develop skills and confidence in the careful selection and application of appropriate methods, from receipt of data to final reporting, and to demonstrate competency in all of this to meet the expectations of the FSR and any accreditation requirements.
Each course is certificated with an in-class competency assessment.
The Core course covers the fundamental concepts of CCTV including establishing and validating timing information relevant for any onward analysis. This module also incorporates an awareness and practical use of a variety of methods for estimating distances from video footage to ascertain estimates of speed. The basic principles of measurement uncertainty are also covered in this course.
Some of the main areas covered include timing analysis, metadata, compression algorithms, macroblocks, and transcoding.
If you have already attended a CCTV module/course you do not need to resit the this course (see Entry Requirements below).
This four day classroom based course is designed to explore positioning and distance assessment methods where it is not possible to return to the scene of the incident to collect more information. Data integrity and standard operating procedure workflows are covered for each method which will include,
UKAS driven uncertainty calculations will be covered.
This four day classroom based course is designed to explore positioning techniques and distance assessment for instances where additional scene data is available. Data integrity and standard operating procedure workflows are covered for each method which will include,
Method Verification and UKAS driven uncertainty calculations will be covered.
This four day classroom based course is designed to explore positioning and distance assessment techniques for instances when the camera involved is not in a fixed position. This will include dashboard cameras, mobile phones, and action cameras, but could be applied to any situation where the camera position is changing. Standard operating procedure workflows are covered for each method. The following topics will be covered
Method Verification and UKAS driven uncertainty calculations will be covered.
The Core module must be completed before you can sit any of the Advanced Courses. For those who hold a CertHE in forensic road Investigation or higher or have undertaken the existing standalone CCTV course, you have already fulfilled the requirements of the Core Course. For those not on the Higher Education path, we run standalone Core Course.
Advanced courses can be selected according to the needs of the Forensic Unit, and can be undertaken in any order.
