Photoshop CS3 for Forensics Professionals: A Complete Digital Imaging Course for Investigators has been released. At the end of this post is a link to a sample chapter.
Digital imaging technology has been used in forensics since at least 1992, yet there has been no practical instruction available to address the unique issues of image processing in an everyday forensic environment.
Previous books on imaging forensics did not reach beyond academic theory into everyday practice nor did they focus on Photoshop as the central tool. Photoshop CS3 for Forensics Professionals serves the everyday, real-world needs of law enforcement and legal personnel dealing with digital images (including both photos and video stills). It's an excellent tool for:
* Law enforcement personnel, from crime scene and arson investigators, detectives, and patrol officers to forensic photographers, fingerprint examiners, video analysts, tool mark and footwear examiners, and criminalists.
* Security pros in such fields as private investigation, insurance, fraud detection, and loss prevention.
* Scientific and technical users of Photoshop with workflows similar to law enforcement, such as medical photographers, research imaging experts, engineering and architecture staff, and industrial photographers.
* Staff responsible for maintaining a photo archive or printing images for court.
Photoshop CS3 for Forensics Professionals is the only book that provides specific answers for professionals in these fields to their imaging questions. Its the perfect resource for forensics professionals who want to move beyond the simple theory to learn the essential skills they need to do their job better and more effectively.
Part I: The Essentials is about setting up your workflow, archiving your images, and familiarizing yourself with Adobe Photoshop and Adobe Bridge, including the setting up of preferences. Also covered are the best practices in writing reports and providing courtroom testimony.
Part II: The Digital Darkroom teaches how to use Photoshop to accomplish what traditionally was done in the darkroom, from correcting colour casts to making prints and exhibits for courtroom use.
Part III: Image Analysis including various accident and crime scenes that readers can use to practice the techniques from the book while following along with the tutorials. It also includes several scripts, plug-ins, and actions that will enable readers to save time and work more effectively. The book includes a 32-page colour insert section, and Instructor's materials are available so the book can be used for workshops and training seminars.
