Getting the Best Out of Crime Analysis: Lessons for Police Leaders and Managers Presented by: Dr. Rachel Boba, Florida Atlantic University Problem-Oriented Policing Conference October 2005
Problem-Oriented Model Immediate Analysis and Response • Incidents • Serious Incidents • Repeat Incidents • Patterns • Problems • Social Issues Long Term Analysis and Response
Data Collection • Lower level data collection imperative • Legal vs. substantive data collection • MO and environmental factors • Observation at time of report • Code factors later

Crime Pattern Spatial Analysis: Map of the incidents and any relevant information.
Crime Pattern 1 2 3 4
Strategic Analysis • Repeat incidents and patterns make up problems • New information may need to be collected • Basic mapping and analysis create more questions than answered • Develop broader theories/hypotheses about why activity is happening
Spatial Analysis • Crimes primarily happening in the west. • Only 12 of 254 addresses victimized twice. • Why in this area?
