The Center will provide technical advice on how to proceed in the identification, classification, and analysis of GIS-related data. In addition, using data provided by police agencies and municipalities, the Center will provide analyses using risk terrain modeling to create base maps against wwhich the GPS tracking data can then be compared. The Center will provide guidance and analytical support in using these maps and intergrating them into the overall project.
