The uniform crime report was mandated by congress in 1930. It collects reports from all over the nation and analyzes that data so that it can be reasonably compared. The survey is done by the FBI with the help from all local police departments.
That IS what it is called. The Uniform Crime Report (UCR).

The Uniform Crime Report is a report issued every year by the FBI. It collects information about crime from local police in every state, and turns that data into crime rates. It is called "uniform" because after the FBI takes into account population and population density, the crime rates are comparable between any two cities.
