VI CAP
engaged contractors outside the FBI to write the client-server soft- ware
application for New VI CAP. (Use of the lowercase “i” in VICAP became the
official choice in the late 1990s. A standard spelling, VI CAP, is used in this chapter
to reduce confusion.) VI CAP software is now distributed to participating
agencies so that they can perform their own analyses with direct access to all
of the data they enter into the system. A networked version of New VI CAP
software allows the exchange of violent crime information within a police
department, a county, a state, or across the nation.
