Mapping
Out Crime
 Crime
rates, particularly for violent crime, have dropped dramatically
in cities and towns across the United States. But more can be
done. As many communities are learning, "mapping" with powerful
computers provides instant access to equally powerful data that
law enforcement officials use to fight crime. A report released
by the Vice President and Attorney General tells how the federal
government can help communities and police departments use information-age
tools to reduce and prevent crime. |
