Crime Mapping Case Studies: From Research to
Practice provides a series of key examples from practice
and research that demonstrate applications of crime mapping and its
effect in many areas of policing and crime reduction. This book
brings together case studies that show how crime mapping can be
used for analysis, intelligence development, monitoring
performance, and crime detection and is written by practitioners
for practitioners.
Leading researchers in the field describe how crime mapping is
developing and exposing analytical methodologies and critiquing
current practices. Including global case studies that demonstrate a
particular application, analytical technique or new theoretical
concept, this text offers a truly global overview of this rapidly
growing area of interest.
Unlike other texts on this topic, this book identifies mistakes
and challenges in this field of enquiry to aid the reader in
understanding the basics of this technique, giving them the
opportunity to learn further.
