摘要：A GIS is a computer system capable of capturing, storing, analyzing, and displaying geographically referenced information. GIS works by relating information from different sources. The power of a GIS comes from the ability to relate different information in a spatial context and to reach a conclusion about this relationship. Most of the information we have about our world contains a location reference, placing that information at some point on the globe. . Geographic Information System (GIS) plays an important role in crime mapping and analysis.GIS uses geography and computer-generated maps as an interface for integrating and accessing massive amounts of location-based information. GIS allows police personnel to plan effectively for emergency response, determine mitigation priorities, analyse historical events, and predict future events. GIS can also be used to get critical information to emergency responders upon dispatch or while en route to an incident to assist in tactical planning and response. GIS helps identify potential suspects to increase investigators suspect base when no leads are evident. This paper presents a survey on how GIS is implemented in various crime activities.
