The Police Executive Research Forum (PERF) and the National Institute of Justice Crime Mapping Research Center (CMRC) collaborated in this volume to highlight various criminal justice agencies' successes with applying mapping to their problem-solving, prevention and enforcement efforts. The book encourages agencies' use of crime mapping and offers ideas on various ways to apply geographic information systems (GIS) and mapping. Readers have the opportunity to form their own opinions about the efficacy and applicability of these efforts to their own jurisdictions.
