Systems and methods for processing recorded data for storage using computer-aided dispatch information

A system comprising:

• an evidence management system comprising:
• an audit trail data store;
• and
• a first video data store;
• and
• an auditable camera, comprising
• a video sensor;
• a second audit trail data store;
• a second video data store;
• and
• a long-range wireless interface configured to communicate with the evidence management system via at least one network, wherein the auditable camera is configured to perform actions for processing recorded data for storage, the actions comprising:
• capturing video data via the video sensor;
• storing the video data within the second video data store;
• receiving a first signal indicating a first auditable event;
• responsive to receiving the first signal indicating the first auditable event, creating a first auditable event entry in the second audit trail data store, the first auditable event entry comprising information associated with the first auditable event;
• marking at least one subset of the video data based on the first auditable event indicated by the received first signal;
• determining the first auditable event comprises an urgent event;
• responsive to determining the first auditable event comprises the urgent event, transmitting the first auditable event entry via the long-range wireless interface to the evidence management system, wherein the evidence management system is configured to store the first auditable event entry in the first audit trail data store;
• in accordance with the marking, uploading the at least one subset of the video data to the evidence management system, wherein the at least one subset of the video data is less than all of the video data stored within the second video data store, the first auditable event entry is transmitted before the at least one subset of the video data is uploaded, and the evidence management system is configured to store the at least one subset of the video data in the first video data store;
• receiving a second signal indicating a second auditable event;
• responsive to receiving the second signal indicating the second auditable event, creating a second auditable event entry in the second audit trail data store, the second auditable event entry comprising information associated with the second auditable event;
• determining the second auditable event comprises a non-urgent event;
• and
• responsive to determining the second auditable event comprises the non-urgent event, refraining from transmitting the second auditable event entry to the evidence management system until after a third signal indicating a third auditable event is subsequently received by the auditable camera.

A method performed by an auditable camera for processing recorded data for storage, the method comprising:

• recording video data captured via a video sensor of the auditable camera;
• storing the video data within a video data store of the auditable camera;
• receiving a first signal indicating a first auditable event;
• responsive to receiving the first signal indicating the first auditable event, creating a first auditable event entry in an audit trail data store of the auditable camera;
• determining the first auditable event comprises an urgent event;
• responsive to determining the first auditable event comprises the urgent event, transmitting the first auditable event entry via a long-range wireless interface of the auditable camera to a remote computing device;
• associating the first auditable event entry with the video data, wherein the associating comprises storing a unique identifier of the video data in the first auditable event entry;
• uploading the video data to the remote computing device via the long-range wireless interface, wherein the first auditable event entry is transmitted before the video data is uploaded;
• receiving a second signal indicating a second auditable event;
• responsive to receiving the second signal indicating the second auditable event, creating a second auditable event entry in the audit trail data store, the second auditable event entry comprising information associated with the second auditable event;
• determining the second auditable event comprises a non-urgent event;
• and
• responsive to determining the second auditable event comprises the non-urgent event, refraining from transmitting the second auditable event entry to the remote computing device until after a third signal indicating a third auditable event is subsequently received by the auditable camera.
