Overview
Professional Geographic Profiling
A Streamlined Version of ECRI’s Popular Rigel Analyst System with all the Essentials for Geographic Profiling.
Case Management
Organize crime data into cases. Enter or import crime and suspect data.
Document and track important information about cases.
Scenarios
Geoprofile groups of crimes separately. Use expert system to
identify statistically-valid scenarios.
Geographic Profiles
Step through the process of producing a geographic profile using ECRI’s proven Criminal Geographic
Targeting (CGT) algorithm.
Automated Reporting
Automatically generate reports with crimes, suspect data, CGT results and images into professionally
formatted MS Word and HTML documents.
Licensing Options
Standalone
The standalone license provides a single copy of the software and license key to be installed on one PC for one user.
Network
The network version is composed of a Network Master License and one or more Concurrent User Licenses. Concurrent license use is managed by the central license server on the network. Using the Network License model, Rigel Analyst can be installed on as many systems as you want within your network, but can only be used simultaneously by the total number of Concurrent User Licenses you own. E.g. if you have 4 users and 2 Concurrent User Licenses, all 4 users could have Rigel Analyst installed on their computers, but only 2 could use Rigel Analyst at any given time.
GIS Support
Microsoft MapPoint 2002, 2004, 2006, 2009 and 2010 
Google Maps (requires internet connection) 
System Requirements
Workstation
The following system requirements are typical for running Rigel with ESRI ArcGIS. The system requirements are lower for running with Google Maps or Microsoft MapPoint.
| CPU Speed: | 2.2 GHz dual core or higher |
| Processor: | Intel Core Duo, Pentium 4 or Xeon Processors |
| Memory/RAM: | 2 GB or higher |
| Display: | 24 bit color depth |
| Resolution: | 1024 x 768 recommended or higher at Normal size (96dpi) |
| Swap Space: | Determined by the operating system, 500 MB minimum. |
| Disk Space: | 2.4 GB and up to 50 MB of disk space maybe needed in the Windows System directory (typically C:\Windows\System32). You can view the disk space requirement for each of the 10.0 components in the Setup program. |
| Graphics: | 24 bit capable graphics accelerator. An OpenGL 2.0 or higher compliant video card is required, with at least 128 MB of video memory, however 512 MB of video memory or higher is recommended. |
| Network Card: | Simple TCP/IP, Network Card or Microsoft Loopback Adapter is required for the License Manager. |
Network License
Windows Workgroup Network
- Windows computers connected to a network via TCP/IP. Each computer running Rigel needs a local IP address and access to the server via TCP/IP in order authorize concurrent license use.
- The license server must have a static IP address on the LAN, and a free USB port.
Thin-client Environments
- Citrix Server / Windows Server with Terminal Services.
- Users log on to the Server as interactive thin clients to access Rigel (no ECRI software on the clients in this case)
- Rigel software is installed on the server computer for the Terminal Services.
- One physical computer with a static IP address and a free USB port to run the license server (may be the same computer where the software resides, or a different computer).
