a Geographic Profile
If you have case that you think Geographic Profiling
would help in or wish to talk to our customers about their experiences
using Geographic Profiling, then contact info@ecricanada.com
and we would be more that happy to put you in touch with our growing
list of worldwide Geographic profilers.
Case assistance is normally provided free of charge
by profilers from one police agency to another, but all profilers
have a heavy case load, and the likelihood of getting their assistance
on a case depends on their current availability, the seriousness
of the case, the importance and applicability of geographic profiling
to the case, and the degree of preparation and understanding of
how to use the results shown by the requestor.
The following preparatory steps are typically required
when performing a geographic profile:
-
A thorough perusal of the case file, including
investigation reports, witness statements, autopsy reports,
and criminal profile (if available).
-
Detailed examination of crime scene and area
profile.
-
Interviews with lead investigators and crime
analysts.
-
Visits to each of the crime sites, when possible
-
Review of neighbourhood and demographic information.
-
Study of street, land use and transit maps.
-
Analysis, and
