From Crime Analysis to Homeland Security: A Role for Neighborhood Profiling?

From Crime Analysis to Homeland Security

The Vulnerable Localities Index for Sandwell in the West Midlands region of England. A score of 100 is representative of the study area’s average measure. Values greater than 100 indicate higher measures of vulnerability. Areas with the highest VLI scores are those that should receive focused neighbourhood policing attention (Chainey 2004)

Watershed in Modern Human

History

Homeland Security A Robust Counter Terrorism Mechanism

The attack on the World Trade Center in 2001 has been by far the single most important event in the history of the modern world and more so because it forced the world to change its perception on the nature of organization, the usage of technology, the responses, the consolidation of activities and spread of mechanisms needed to thwart the ever growing terrorism the world over.

Remote Sensing-Based Damage Assessment for Homeland Security 

Pre- and post-Hurricane Katrina IKONOS satellite images of a portion of New Orleans, LA, USA, acquired on 28 August 2002 (left) and 2 September 2005 (right), respectively (truecolor, converted to grayscale). Building damage and flooded areas are readily apparent in the post-hurricane image on the right. Such outwardly apparent structural damage can be visually interpreted by a human analyst.

Agent Based modelling takes care of this and also the simulation process

Evacuation Planning remains to be a challenging task

Evacuation Planning remains to be a challenging task

Building Evacuation in Emergencies

Surge of interest in this field now

developing building evacuation analysis using models that focus explicitly upon the human individual’s locus of behavior

We have a well proven precedent!

The Role of Geosurveillance and Security in the Politics of Fear

Motive agnostic!

The Importance of Spatial Thinking in an Uncertain World

Geospatial education and R & D is the key

Three characteristics distinguish homeland security applications from other domains: the need for speed; the difficult environments in which technology must operate; and the impossibility of anticipating many relevant kinds of events in either space or time.

The challenge!

National Homeland Security Blueprint

The beginning of this grandiose plan set to have a transformational impact on the Homeland Security scenario of the country is yet to be made. The world’s best buildings were a blueprint one day. A blueprint is the first to crystallize our thoughts, it could take a large number of revisions, nonetheless it has to start. Time seems to be running out.
