Unified Criminal Justice Information System (UCJIS) Grant

Aldona Valicenti, who chairs the UCJIS council, and the Justice Cabinet were proud to receive from the National Governors' Association (NGA) an award grant of $1million to pilot a warrants project in Kentucky. Currently the process of obtaining and serving a warrant is not standardized in the state and warrants are held on a county by county basis without the processes in place to share that information statewide. UCJIS is an information system that utilizes technology to electronically capture data built on a set of unique identifiers (charge and individual) at the earliest opportunity. This data will appear as a seamless record of an individual’s encounters with the criminal justice system. UCJIS is anticipated to greatly improve the capture and flow of information by helping reduce/eliminate redundant data entry, increase the sharing of information statewide, conform to national standards, save time and hopefully save lives.

GIS Gets NASA Grant
The Kentucky Office of Geographic Information in the Governor's Office for Technology was awarded a $1.3 million NASA grant to gain a clearer picture of forest, urban and rural landscape in Kentucky.
