Risk Terrain Modeling

About this book

Imagine using an evidence-basedriskmanagementmodelthat enables researchers and practitioners alike to analyze the spatial dynamics of crime, allocate resources, and implement custom crime andriskreduction strategies that are transparent, measurable, and effective. RiskTerrainModeling(RTM) diagnoses the spatial attractors of criminal behavior and makes accurate forecasts of where crime will occur at the microlevel. RTM informs decisions about how the combined factors that contribute to criminal behavior can be targeted, connections to crime can be monitored, spatial vulnerabilities can be assessed, and actions can be taken to reduce worst effects. As a diagnostic method, RTM offers astatistically valid way to identify vulnerable places. To learn more, visit http://www.riskterrainmodeling.com and begin using RTM with the many free tutorials and resources.
