OBJECTIVES: The present work aims to present a study on the form currently in use within the scope of the Federal Police Station regarding the analysis of FIRs from the COAF, then presenting a methodology suggestion, aiming to speed up the process. Regarding open sources, the objective is to carry out a survey of possible complementary repositories not yet used and to expose ways of implementing queries.

METHODS: Pointing out the workflow currently used (displaying it in graphic form) as well as identifying the data sources consulted (open sources and closed sources) during the process,

CONCLUSION: understanding how the FIR analysis system is currently carried out, identifying possible aspects for improvement, and suggesting a methodology to be used, indicating for this the use of files in a specific format (.CSV), exclusion of queries in similar repositories (System “A”) and, mainly, the automation of part of the procedure (with the use of the RIBOT prototype software).
