The drug market is a dynamic environment, which is influenced by many factors such as supply and demand, social trends and law enforcement. In this changing environment it is difficult to stay in touch with changing market trends and or measure the impact of drug management / reduction initiatives. The Chemical Drugs Intelligence database was developed to provide a 'view' of the drug market from the perspective of chemical data acquired through the analysis of drug seizures within Victoria. Such data could provide validated information pertaining to drug identification, market presentations, quantity and purity, all key pieces of data which could be utilised by relevant agencies to assist in the understanding of current trends and development of drug initiatives / strategies.
