PROGRESS REPORT

PROJECT: “ONLINE CRIME REPORTING”

Introduction:

Objective:
To develop a online software which provides anonymous and secure mechanism for both
victim and witnesses to report a crime to police

Literature survey:

National surveys demonstrate that millions of crimes go unreported. Several reasons may
contribute to this lack of reporting and we are investigating these potential reasons and how they
may be addressed. We are developing an online system that provides an anonymous and secure
mechanism for both victims and witnesses to report crimes to police. The system is being
implemented and tested on a university campus. Potential users (i.e., students, staff) were
surveyed to determine their intent to use the system. Respondents claimed to report crimes
already, which is in contrast with the findings from the national surveys. Our respondents found
the online system useful, accessible, and safe to report crime, but the type of crime and the
urgency of response is a determinant in the decision to use the system versus reporting it to a live
person. 
Proposed System:

In our day to day life many crimes go unreported due to several reasons such as,
unwillingness of the victim, hassles to report a crime, fear of recognition & many more reasons.
To overcome these obstacles we are introducing a new application, “ONLINE CRIME
REPORTING”. It is a web based service implemented in ASP.NET & C# as front end & SQL
SERVER as back end. Users register themselves & may report crime & appropriate actions are
taken while not disclosing the reporter’s identity

The following functionalities will be offered by the proposed system:-

i. Crime Reporting forms, proof attachments. On form submission an SMS goes to regional
police officer to inform the type of crime & other much more details in email.

ii. Facilitate crime and criminals search – region, crime-type, gender, age group wise etc.

iii. Missing citizen or valuables reporting and search

iv. Recognition of citizen and other users’ contribution in solving criminal issues.

v. Secure registration and profile management facilities for detectives and security agencies.

vi Time to time inform the alertness in their city to users via sms or email

Software Requirement
Front End: C# .Net, ASP .Net (Microsoft Visual Studio 2005)
Back End: SQL Server 2005.

Hardware Requirement:
• Intel Pentium IV Processor.
• 512 MB RAM
• 40 GB Hard Disk.

 1. Concept Exploration

It deals with exploring and briefing the idea of the project. Here we find out the problem

domain to be worked on.

2. Requirements

The first phase of software project is to gather requirements. Some of the highlights of the

requirement gathering phase include

 Collecting project ideas.

 Gathering customer requirements and proposed solutions.

 Justifying the project.

 Submitting the request for proposal.

 Getting the team in place.

 Preparing the requirements document.

3. Design:

System design is the process of planning a new system moving from the problem domain to the

solution domain. The design phase translates the logical aspects of the system into physical

aspects of the system.

4. Implementation:

The purpose of System Implementation can be summarized as follows:-

• Making the new system available to a prepared set of users (the deployment).

• Positioning on-going support and maintenance of the system

• Placing the newly developed system into production,

 • Changing from a system development to a system support and maintenance mode

of operation.

5. Testing

-Exercised in all phases of the project.

-Extensive testing should be applied to each phase.

- Developers perform a thorough unit testing of each software component.

-They also perform integration testing of all combined modules.

5.1 Types of testing

• Integration

• Black-Box Testing

• White –Box Testing

What has done by us till now to develop our project:

Our project contains many web pages ,database and a GSM modem for sending and receiving
SMS .
So we have developed web pages like masterpage……….<INCOMPLETE insert some text in

Scope of the Project:

We believe people might find such as system a convenient alternative for reporting crime that
addresses their concerns when having to report a crime. . Our respondents found the online
system useful, accessible, and safe to report crime, but the type of crime and the urgency of
response is a determinant in the decision to use the system versus reporting it to a live person.

Such applications are used by police stations to allow public to report the crime anonymously.
