ANNOUNCEMENT OF RELEASE

California Incident-Based Reporting System (CIBRS)

Flat-File Technical Specifications Document

The California Department of Justice (CA DOJ) is pleased to announce the release of the CIBRS

Flat-File Technical Specifications version 2020.1. This document provides the technical

language, validation rules, and logic for the CA DOJ’s expansion of the FBI’s National Incident-

Based Reporting System (NIBRS) Technical Specifications which includes additional CA values

for existing NIBRS fields and new CA data elements. The CIBRS Flat-File Technical

Specifications version 2020.1 must be used in addition to the FBI’s NIBRS Technical

Specifications version 2019.1. The FBI’s NIBRS Technical Specifications version 2019.1 can be

found at: https://www.fbi.gov/file-repository/ucr/ucr-2019-1-nibrs-technical-

specification.pdf/view.

The CIBRS Flat-File Technical Specifications document should used solely for the Flat-

File data submission method, as it will not provide the specifications for any other submission

types. The CIBRS XML Technical Specifications will be released in March 2020.

All CIBRS Technical Specifications documents will be updated on an as-needed basis,

or when the FBI’s NIBRS Technical Specifications is updated with changes that would affect the

existing CIBRS specifications.

The CA DOJ will be scheduling webinar sessions with our CIBRS repository vendor,

Optimum Technology, to facilitate answering questions related to both technical specification

documents. In order to optimize the webinars, the CA DOJ is asking that all questions be pre-

submitted by participating agencies and their vendors to CANIBRS@doj.ca.gov. This will allow

the CA DOJ to prepare for the webinar discussion to ensure that it is timely and productive. The

webinar details will be forthcoming.

Please submit all questions related to the CA DOJ’s NIBRS transition effort and documentation

to CANIBRS@doj.ca.gov.

1. INTRODUCTION

1.1 Purpose

The purpose of this CIBRS Flat-File Technical Specifications document is to provide

details regarding the additional data the California Department of Justice (CA DOJ) will

collect beyond what is collected for a National Incident-Based Reporting System (NIBRS)

submission. This Technical Specifications document covers the NIBRS data elements

with any additional California (CA) data values and new California-specific data elements.

This document covers only the additions made to the FBI’s NIBRS Technical

Specifications to accommodate additional CA data values and data elements. This

document should be used in conjunction with the Federal Bureau of Investigation’s (FBI)

NIBRS Technical Specification Version 2019.1.

1) NIBRS Data Elements with Additional CA Values: For some of the NIBRS data

elements, CA DOJ will expand them to collect additional values.

Example: For NIBRS Data Element 28 (Race of Victim), CA DOJ will collect

four additional values and roll them up to one NIBRS value upon transmission

to the FBI. This is detailed for each additional CA value and an example is

displayed in the table below:

Table 2 - Example of NIBRS Data Element with Additional CA Values

Additional CA Values NIBRS Value

X = Native Hawaiian The additional CA values will be sent to the FBI as

Y = Pacific Islander P = Native Hawaiian or Other Pacific Islander

Z = Samoan

V = Guamanian

Note: The highlighted values in the table are the additional CA values the

CIBRS Repository will collect and store. The CIBRS Repository will then

logically convert the additional CA Values and roll them up to the appropriate

NIBRS value when they are sent to the FBI. All validations will be performed

on the rolled-up NIBRS value.

2) Additional CA-Specific Data Elements: The additional CA data elements are

collected in four new segments. The four new segments are: Segment 8, Segment

9, Segment B, and Segment A.

For Group A Incident Reports, the additional fields are collected in:

a) Segment 8 (Level 8)

b) Segment 9 (Level 9)

c) Segment B (Level B)

For Group B Arrest Reports, the additional fields are collected in:

a) Segment A (Level A)

CA DOJ CIBRS Repository Flat File Technical Specifications Document

Each new segment’s layout designs are in-line with standard NIBRS segments.

The new segments have:

a) the same header information as in standard NIBRS segments

b) Data Element 1 (ORI) and Data Element 2 (Incident Number) for Group A

Incident Reports

c) Data Element 1 (ORI), Data Element 40 (Arrestee Sequence Number), and

Data Element 41 (Arrestee Transaction Number) for Group B Arrest

Reports

Note: The purpose, layout, list of fields, and validations for each segment are

covered in the subsequent sections.

2. OVERVIEW OF NIBRS DATA ELEMENTS AFFECTED BY CA CUSTOMIZATIONS

This section details the NIBRS Data Elements that are impacted by the CA

customizations. Please read this section carefully.

1) Format Changes to the FBI NIBRS Data Elements: There are some format changes

to the FBI NIBRS Data Elements to accommodate additional CA values.

Example: Per the FBI’s NIBRS Technical Specification, the format of Data

Element 9 (Location Type) is: 2-Character Numeric. The format is changed to a 2-

Character Alphanumeric to accommodate the additional CA values and avoid a

future clash in values in case the FBI extends the values of a particular NIBRS

data element.

2) NIBRS “Dropped” Values (FBI NIBRS Values Not Submitted by LEAs): To

accommodate the additional CA values, some of the FBI’s NIBRS values are “dropped”

or not used by LEA’s when submitting data to the CA DOJ.

Example: For Data Element 9 (Location Type), the value: ‘53 = School–

Elementary/Secondary’ is dropped and should not be reported by LEA’s. Instead,

LEAs should report using one of the three additional values displayed below:

 S1 = School- Elementary

 S2 = School- Junior High

 S3 = School- High School

3) NIBRS Data Elements with Additional CA values: Additional CA values are added

to each of the following FBI NIBRS Data Elements listed below:

1) Data Element 8A (Bias Motivation)

2) Data Element 9 (Location Type)

3) Data Element 13 (Type Weapon/Force Involved)

4) Data Element 15 (Property Description)

5) Data Element 25 (Type of Victim)

6) Data Element 27 (Sex of Victim)

7) Data Element 28 (Race of Victim)

8) Data Element 30 (Resident Status of Victim)

9) Data Element 31 (Aggravated Assault/Homicide Circumstances)

10) Data Element 35 (Relationship of Victim to Offender)

11) Data Element 38 (Sex of Offender)

12) Data Element 39 (Race of Offender)

13) Data Element 48 (Sex of Arrestee)

14) Data Element 49 (Race of Arrestee)

15) Data Element 51 (Resident Status of Arrestee)

16) Data Element 52 (Disposition of Arrestee Under 18)

The additional CA data elements are collected in four new segments. These segments

are Segment 8, Segment 9, Segment B, and Segment A.

4.1 Segment 8 – Incident level Additional Data Elements Layout

Segment 8 (Level 8) allows for the reporting of additional CA data elements within the

incident level. The additional elements collected in this segment are: Zip Code, Anti-

Reproductive Rights Crime (ARRC) Indicator, Identity Theft Indicator, Gang Activity

Indicator, Gang Type, Hate Crime Offensive Act, and CA Offense Code details for the

offenses reported in a Group A Incident Report.

1) Segment 8 (Level 8) can be reported only once for each Group A Incident Report.

2) The segment 8 (Level 8) is mandatory for all the Group A Incident Reports and

should be organized in numerical order. For example, an incident having segments

1, 2, 2, 3, 4, 4, 4, 5, 8 must be written in that order, not as 1, 2, 2, 8, 3, 4, 4, 4, 5
