Title: Market Survey of Location-Based Offender Tracking Technologies, Version 1.1

Summary: In September of 2013, the Johns Hopkins University Applied Physics Laboratory (JHU/APL) was selected by the Department of Justice, National Institute of Justice (NIJ) to establish the National Institute of Justice Technology Research, Test, and Evaluation (NIJ RT&E) Center within the National Law Enforcement and Corrections Technology Center (NLECTC) System. The purpose of the NIJ RT&E Center is to provide in-depth technical reports and support for NIJ's non-forensic research and development efforts. The Center will inform the criminal justice field concerning offender tracking and monitoring technologies, systems, products, services and related issues in a more innovative, sustainable, efficient, and effective manner. Under NIJ Cooperative Agreement, Award No. 2013-MU-CX-K111, the NIJ RT&E Center was commissioned to conduct a market survey of offender tracking systems (OTS)-hardware and software-to assist public safety and criminal justice practitioners who may be considering the acquisition and implementation of this type of technology in their community. To collect market survey data on OTS products, a request for information (RFI) was created; data was solicited directly from OTS product vendors and it was posted as a Notice in the Federal Register. This paper provides background context for OTS, the NIJ RT&E Center's methodology for developing the market survey, and results from the market survey. This market survey presents a view of the technologies available at the time of publication. When considering an acquisition of OTS equipment, additional information should be sought from the specific vendors of interest. Contact information for the manufacturers is provided in Section 5- Market Survey Data Analysis.

Title: Multi-jurisdiction Research on Automated Reporting Systems: Kiosk Supervision

Summary: The Multi-jurisdiction Kiosk Study was designed to expand and strengthen the evidence base on kiosk reporting used to supervise probationers and parolees. The research study collected and analyzed information on the prevalence of kiosk reporting, implementation experiences of adopters of this approach, and outcomes and costs associated with its use. In addition to enhancing the evidence base, the research findings informed the development of a practical guidebook on adoption and implementation that will help community supervision agencies make knowledgeable decisions about kiosk reporting. This mixed method study involved multiple components including: 1) a brief telephone screener and in-depth telephone interviews, 2) an implementation and cost study, and 3) an outcome study. The research methods and findings from each component are described in the remainder of this overview.

Title: Kiosk Supervision: A Guidebook for Community Corrections Professionals

Summary: Automated kiosk reporting systems have gained popularity in recent years as community supervision agencies strive to provide quality supervision services at reduced costs. This guidebook, which provides community supervision agencies with an overview of automated kiosk reporting systems, is based primarily on the findings of a multi-jurisdiction kiosk study on the use of automated kiosk reporting systems to supervise clients placed under community supervision. The multi-jurisdiction kiosk study was conducted by Westat, an employee-owned research firm in Rockville, Maryland, and funded by the U.S. Department of Justice, National Institute of Justice (NIJ). This research was designed to gather as much information as possible on automated kiosk reporting systems from the field - i.e., community supervision agencies that were currently using, seriously considered using, or formerly used automated kiosk reporting systems to supervise clients - and to compile and disseminate the information collected to community supervision agencies that may be exploring alternatives to traditional officer supervision.
