OLES Standard Reference Databases for the Forensic Sciences

Standard Reference Databases are useful to the forensic community.

Some of the databases are freely available online, others require a purchasing fee, and others must be purchased through a distributor.

The NIST Standard Reference Databases can be found at NIST Scientific and Technical Databases or by selecting the database names below.

The database link may be followed by a code. These codes are as follows:

  • PC indicates a PC product (most available for purchase, some are free)
  • DG indicates inclusion in the NIST Data Gateway - a portal providing access to many NIST scientific and technical databases. The gateway is searchable by keyword, property, or substance name.
  • Online indicates a free online system.
