Even though we can´t know exactly when and where a crime will occur, we can combine multiple data sets to deliver predictive analysis and visualize areas of concern. That way, we can maximize local resources to solve problems before they become crimes.
When it comes to human behavior, location matters. The environment can influence crimes, and some areas are more exposed to crimes than others.
The truth is that crimes are not divided evenly over a population. Instead, they are usually concentrated on a specific time and place. With RTM, you take the focus off people and put it on places instead.
By analyzing local conditions, we can identify environmental conditions that contribute to criminal behavior and, with that diagnosis, make an accurate forecast and help the police prioritize resource deployments to prevent crimes.
With RTM, we can analyze certain areas and help the police understand where to go because a crime is likely to happen, what to do when they get there, and why that area attracts criminal behaviors.
That will give the police a considerable advantage against criminals.
One key to successful RTM is, of course, continuous analysis. This is not a one-off. But over time, using YOSE can help identify leading indicators and other relevant parameters needed for successful policing.”
Since 2009, the police and other city officials in the United States have been using RTM to locate areas of concern. RTM has already proven to be successful there, and in many cities, they have seen reductions in crimes by over 30%, according to riskterrainmodeling.com.
It has since been tested successfully in 45 countries on six continents across the world.
Paliscope can support Law Enforcement digitalization and forward-leaning policing through our tools. With our Geo Analytics module in YOSE, the analysts and investigators can combine multiple data sets and visualize areas of concern.
If a Police force through RTM can plan and execute more efficiently and ultimately deliver more investigations and cases, we want to be engaged.
