  3. History of DVI • Interpol viewed Casualty Bureau at their conference in 2001 and saw its potential as the Major Disaster Victim Identification tool • Casualty Bureau is half of HOLMES 2, the Nationally Accepted System, deployed to every Police Force in the UK • DVI incorporates Casualty Bureau as one quarter of its solution • Interpol have approved DVI as a Major Disaster Victim Identification tool

  6. Exercise Poseidon 2 Comments from Dave Blackiston (MICAS PM) • "Exercise Poseidon 2 involved a ferry arriving in Harwich from Denmark. The multi-lingual capability of DVI would easily allow a Danish Call Centre to be set up in Denmark to feed caller and misper details directly into our Casualty Bureau." • "DVI was operated by people without any HOLMES 2 or DVI experience or training. They had no problem using DVI." • "Essex currently have 50 people trained as call takers. They each have two days initial training then one day refresher training per year. DVI will allow a substantial time and cost saving."

  7. Roddy Ross (PITO) on DVI • "Over the last two years we have been looking for a solution to the technical issues with Mutual Aid. The DVI development has the potential to provide the solution and change the way we do business“. • "DVI will greatly reduce the need for training. Modularising HOLMES 2 on web pages puts operators in a familiar environment. Most people are very comfortable working on-line”.
