2008 NIJ Law Enforcement and Forensics Applied Technologies Conference
March 17 - 21, 2008 — Point Clear, Alabama
The 5th NIJ Applied Technologies Conference, to be held at the Grand Hotel Marriott Resort in Point Clear, Alabama, showcases novel tools and technologies with current or future law enforcement and crime laboratory applications that improve how we keep our communities safe. In addition, it features forums for discussing the procedures, policies, and issues that arise when new technology is introduced in a community. Through panel discussions and exhibits, executives will have a chance to sample a wide variety of technologies and their associated issues, like community acceptance, return on investment, planning for deployment, and privacy. NIJ sponsors the Applied Technologies Conference in partnership with the Sheriff's Association of Texas and the National Forensic Science Technology Center.
