Abstracts
In crime investigation of a particular offence and crime as a mass phenomenon that encompasses vic-timization as well, both theoretical and empirical research in the areas of environmental criminology, situational criminalistics and behaviour geography has developed a framework for development of geography of crime. It examines the relationship between variables of time and space, on the one hand, and individuals or social groups and crime, on the other. Spatially referenced data analysis as a useful tool is performed by Geographic Information Systems (GIS). GIS can be used for crime map-ping analysis, geographic profiling of serial crime offenders, target or victims, in order to establish causal relationships when criminal acts have been commited persistantly and repeatedly. GIS can also be used for predicting future criminal activities and assist with organisation of significant security e-vents with regard to time and place, as well as for Community Oriented Policing. Due to a significant impact on the quality of police work, policy and decision making at operational, tactical and strategi-cal levels, contemporary police organizations use GIS in their daily work resulting in crime prevention and crime rate reduction.
