Abstract

The study looks at the fact that modern technology facilitates the detection and investigation of crimes and discusses the prerequisites for introducing modern technical developments and information technology into expert activities to investigate ele-ments subject to examination and improve the work-flow of highly specialized staff. Based on forensic literature, the author analyzes the concept of work-station and defines the characteristics, advantages, principles, and arrangements of a crime scene tech-nician workstation. The relevant requirements should be fulfilled. In particular, it is necessary to provide a high level of information security and pro-tect against unauthorized access to system data-bases designed to automate expert activities and increase their efficiency. In the author’s opinion, in addition to the considerable importance of equip-ment and technology that help develop professional skills, the full-fledged information support for work-stations plays a great role in performing the tasks assigned to crime scene technicians. Software and hardware systems necessary for traditional examina-tions are exemplified. The emphasis is placed on the need to train qualified staff capable of using the developments under discussion.
