Résumé

Much of crime mapping is devoted to detecting high-crime density areas known as hot spots. This monograph identifies and discusses the factors needed to analyze hot spots: analysis focus, spatial dependence, crime type, time intervals, barriers, output display, and software. The report is comprised of three main chapters. Chapter 1 is targeted to novices in crime mapping defining crime hot spots; what they are, why they exist, and how to map them. Chapter 2 is more advanced discussing the methods and techniques for understanding crime hot spots. The third chapter is geared to those highly experienced analysts providing spatial analysis tools for identifying hot spots.
