Department of Homeland Security – ICEPIC
Immigration and Customs Enforcement Pattern Analysis and Information Collection System (ICEPIC) is integral to active ICE law enforcement investigations and is directed at developing new leads for those investigative cases. It is also used to identify relationship patterns that are indicative of violations of U.S. customs and immigration laws and possible terrorist activities, potentially resulting in the opening of new investigative cases. The information in ICEPIC consists of the biographical and biometric information obtained from individuals during DHS enforcement encounters or provided by individuals when applying for U.S. immigration benefits or admission to the U.S. Biographical data includes name, aliases, date of birth, phone numbers, addresses, and nationality; biometric information includes fingerprints and photographs. Prior law enforcement encounter information consists of data related to an individual’s case, including immigration history, alien registration information, and other identification or record numbers.

Los Angeles Sheriff’s Department
The Technical Services Division’s Law Enforcement Information Sharing Program (LEISP) was created in 2005 to better coordinate the many projects and initiatives that address the lack of crime data for investigative purposes, the numerous unconnected databases operated by the LASD and law enforcement in general, and the desire to effectively share crime information with our local, regional and federal law enforcement partners. The LEISP unified several functions that had been traditionally performed in separate environments, as well as many new projects that fit into the LEISP category.

San Diego Regional Law Enforcement Consortium – ARJIS
The Automated Regional Justice Information System (ARJIS) was created as a joint powers agency (JPA) to share information among justice agencies throughout San Diego and Imperial Counties, California.

ARJIS is used for tactical analysis, investigations, statistical information, and crime analysis. The ARJIS governance structure promotes data sharing and cooperation at all levels for member agencies, from chiefs to officers to technical staff.

ARJIS is responsible for major public safety initiatives, including wireless access to photos, warrants, and other critical data in the field, crime and sex offender mapping, crime analysis tools evaluation, and an enterprise system of applications that help users solve crimes and identify offenders. ARJIS also serves as the region's information hub for officer notification, information sharing, and the exchange, validation, and real-time uploading of many types of public safety data.
