Ohio Law Enforcement Gateway

Attorney General's office has made great advances to make sharing information among Ohio law enforcement agencies easier by creating OHLEG, the Ohio Law Enforcement Gateway, an electronic criminal justice information network.

OHLEG is a secure, Web-based platform that provides law enforcement with a variety of investigative tools and training applications to help solve and prevent crimes. Since its launch in 2003, OHLEG has rapidly expanded and hundreds of Ohio law enforcement agencies have signed on to take advantage of its many crime fighting features.

The Gateway currently provides access to nine law enforcement databases and tools, and includes a cross-database search engine and proprietary records management system for agencies that cannot afford to purchase a commercial record keeping system. For additional information about the Ohio Law Enforcement Gateway, contact Director Steven Raubenolt at (614) 466-4320, or visit the OHLEG web site at www.ohleg.org.

OHLEG will continue to expand to meet the needs of Ohio law-enforcement agencies. These components are already online or will be added soon:

• OHLEG Search Engine - Provides law enforcement with a useful, yet simple, investigative tool. OHLEG-SE is capable of securely querying numerous data sources from a single interface and displaying results in a consistent manner.
