Shoe print database tops 6000 entries

The latest edition of ‘Solemate’, Foster & Freeman’s collection of manufacturers’ shoe prints, is due to be released with details of over 6,000 shoes. Although a standalone database, Solemate is most often used in conjunction with SICAR, the company’s shoe-print evidence management system. SICAR enables scene of crime and suspects’ shoe prints to be scanned, and stored with sole pattern feature codes that permit ‘search and match’ operations. In cases where no known suspects can be identified directly, the Solemate database can be used to identify the shoe used at the scene, providing essential information on the manufacturer, the model, the date of introduction and various pictorial images. Solemate is continually updated and distributed to subscribers every three months.
