whitepaper Tablet PC Application Facilitates Field Officer Activity Reports0000-00-00 Microsoft
  Quilogy, Inc. has developed a proof-of-concept application that will enable field law enforcement officers at the Iowa Department of Natural Resources enter information and submit regular bi-weekly activity reports using Tablet PCs. Previously, field officers used paper-based forms to record their activity information. In addition, many officers have manually transcribed from their paper-based activity reports into office documents in order to transmit them to supervisors. The new application eliminates the need for any paper entry by field officers, and it also makes the activity report information available to supervisors via a back-end intranet web server. This application will reduce the number of paper documents by 1,600 per year and speed both submission and review of these documents.
