ABSTRACT
Imaging has become an important part of forensic science, for a variety of purposes. These include objectives as diverse as the recording and documentation of evidence, either col-lected at a crime scene or developed in the laboratory or medical imaging facility, and the presentation of evidence in the courtroom. Images are also important as part of the process of the analysis of evidence, for example, matching bullet markings, soil particulates, paint chips, and so forth. Surveillance images may be useful for the identification of individuals as well as the measurement of motion of people or vehicles.
