Fusus manuals, audit logs, and metadata

Todd Feathers filed this request with the Toledo Police Department of Toledo, OH.
Status
Completed

From: Todd Feathers

To Whom It May Concern:

Pursuant to the Ohio Open Records Law, I hereby request the following records:

1) User manuals, handbooks, or comparable instructional documents provided to the department by Fusus regarding the following Fusus products and services:
- FususONE (https://www.fusus.com/rtc3-products/fususone)
- FususCORE (https://www.fusus.com/rtc3-products/fususcore)
- FususREGISTRY (https://www.fusus.com/rtc3-products/fususregistry)
- Fusus AI Video Analytics (https://www.fusus.com/rtc3-products/fusus-ai)
- Fusus Intelligent AI Alerts (https://www.fusus.com/rtc3-products/fusus-ai)

2) Audit logs/audit trails documenting each time a department account has accessed live or recorded video footage through the Fusus platforms from 1/1/2024 until the date this request is processed. To assist with your search, I've attached an example of such an audit log from another department that uses Fusus. This data should be stored in a database and so I ask that you provide it to me as a .csv, .xls, or other database filetype.

3) Metadata for each Intelligent AI Alert generated by the department's Fusus system from 1/1/2024 until the date this request is processed. Fusus Intelligent AI Alerts automatically notify authorized users when Fusus AI-connected cameras detect pre-defined events (e.g. a fight) or profiles (e.g. a vehicle of interest). Please note that I am not requesting the video footage or any personally identifying information associated with the alert, but rather the metadata. Metadata may include, but is not limited to: the type of alert, the date and time of the alert, who received the alert, locations associated with the alert, and algorithmic confidence scores associated with the alert. This metadata should be stored in a database and so I ask that you provide it to me as a .csv, .xls, or other database filetype.

If you have any questions about this request, please do not hesitate to ask. If you would like to set up a time to discuss this request over the phone, please email me at tfeathers@gizmodo.com.

I am requesting these records as a journalist in order to write articles in the public interest about the operations of a government agency and not for any commercial purpose.

In the event that you determine certain records or portions of records are exempt from disclosure, I ask that you provide a detailed explanation of the records or portions of records being withheld and the statutory exemptions under which they are being withheld.

The requested documents will be made available to the general public, and this request is not being made for commercial purposes.

In the event that there are fees, I would be grateful if you would inform me of the total charges in advance of fulfilling my request. I would prefer the request filled electronically, by e-mail attachment if available or CD-ROM if not.

Thank you in advance for your anticipated cooperation in this matter. I look forward to receiving your response to this request within 10 business days.

Sincerely,

Todd Feathers

From: Toledo Police Department

We have attached the Live View and Recorded View audit logs from the Fusus system. We dont have any metadata regarding AI types of alerts as we do not receive any such alerts. All user manuals, handbooks and/or any instructional documents provided by Fusus to us are property of Fusus with confidentiality clauses attached. You will need to reach out to Fusus for such items.
