## Description

Services are required for access to the Iowa On-line Warrants and Articles (IOWA) Criminal Justice Information Network and the National Crime Information Center (NCIC) databases to conduct inquiries on databases for wanted persons; missing persons; protective orders, sex offenders, stolen property, including vehicles and guns; motor vehicle registration; driver license; criminal history records and administrative messages.

The IOWA training staff will instruct and certify CIVAHSC Police Enforcement personnel in the use of the IOWA System, audit IOWA system agencies for compliance in state and federal policies and regulations, certify software for use with the IOWA System and expand the network with access to new databases and capabilities. The IOWA system will provide authorized CIVAHSC Police Service employees access to traffic record and criminal justice databases through a dedicated telecommunications network.

The IOWA system will provide access to databases from various state agencies within Iowa, from the Federal Bureau of Investigation’s National Crime Information Center (NCIC), and from the motor vehicle departments of other states nationally through the National Law Enforcement Telecommunications System (NLETS). Information on an international basis is also provided by NCIC and NLETS through interfaces to Canadian Police Information Centre and to INTERPOL.

The NLETS system also provides administrative message traffic between Iowa criminal justice agencies and criminal justice agencies throughout the United States. The IOWA system will allow the CIVAHSC Police Service to:

Access nationwide computerized banks of information such as wanted, missing, and unidentified persons; stolen vehicles; stolen articles; stolen boats; stolen guns and stolen securities. Access driver license and motor vehicle information in-state as well as out-of-state. Exchange criminal history information on a national basis. Communicate by use of administrative messages with other criminal justice agencies worldwide.
