The modern possibilities for the explosion crime scene photography

The study reviews the possibilities of the modern technical equipment used to examine the explosion crime scene. Its advantages over the traditional tools for taking photos are revealed. The research specifies the conditions and restrictions to be compiled with during the investigative examination of the crime scene due to the explosion. They imply the location, the lack of examination space, the multiplicity of traces, the non-obvious causes and nature of the explosion, the urgent nature of the examination, and safety requirements. The emphasis is placed on negative factors in the investigative examination of the trace pattern of the crime under review. These mainly include gas poisoning, electric trauma, structure failures, and chemical burns. The research provides recommendations for overcoming them by forensic tactics. A careful planning of investigative actions is the main one. The research discusses the possibilities for making a high-angle shot of the crime scene by the quadcopter. It demonstrates the advantages of this technical device in relation to the investigative examination due to the explosion. The compliance with the basic requirements of forensic quadcopter photography is determined. As a result, a three-dimensional image of the crime scene will be available. It can serve as the basis for identifying the mechanism of the explosion.
