dc.description.abstractPolice agencies in Pakistanintend to use computers for data storage and analysis. But no real GIS application exists. Even data storage and analysis by using computers is in a rudimentary stage. GIS provides very advanced techniques for data analysis and there is a need to apply this potent technology in PakistanPolicing. The present research is done as a model for the implementations of GIS in PakistanPolicing. The aim of the present research is to analyze the crime scenario of Iqbal Town District Zone by using GIS technology. Crime is being analyzed manually in different disciplines but crime analysis in GIS does not exist. The research is an effort to give crime analysis a new direction. GIS software, Arc View 3.1 was used in present study. Dereferencing of spatial data was done in image analysis (an extension of Arc View). Data pertaining to the property offences as robbery, auto theft and auto snatching. The distribution of crime incidents showed that almost the whole of the study areas is witnessing crime include. The GIS analysis techniques are used for hot spot analysis, buffer analysis, and index of concentration. These analyses are done on different maps layers produced in Arc View. The description and analysis of these maps are useful for identifying and demarcating hot spot of crime, displacement of crime and illustrating the relationship between the mapped crime pattern and geographic characteristics of the study area.en_US
