An incident-based reporting system that collects detailed data on every single crime occurrence. NIBRS data are replacing the kinds of summary data that have traditionally been provided by the FBI’s Uniform Crime Reports.

The National Incident-Based Reporting System (NIBRS) is an incident-based reporting system that collects detailed data on every single crime occurrence. NIBRS data will soon supersede the kinds of summary data that has traditionally been provided by the FBI’s Uniform Crime Reporting Program. NIBRS is not a separate report, but utilizes data from the UCR system in more detail. With the addition of NIBRS based data, some of the older definitions of criminal activity have changed.

The National Incident-Based Reporting System is an incident-based reporting system that will supersede the traditional data provided by the FBI’s Uniform Crime Reports. Under the new enhanced system, law enforcement agencies will provide detailed information about the crime and arrest activities at the incident level. The traditional UCR Program was summary based, and NIBRS is incident driven. The NIBRS also replaces the old Part I and Part II offenses with 22 general offenses. NIBRS also eliminates the need for the hierarchy rule.
