Meet the Experts: From Maps to Meaning - Using GIS for Crime & Intelligence Analysis

Join us to learn how GIS, often perceived as a complex or optional tool in criminal intelligence work, can significantly enhance an analyst’s ability to identify patterns, relationships, and operational insights.

This webinar will introduce key geospatial concepts using ArcGIS Pro, demonstrating how GIS supports real investigative and intelligence needs. Participants will see how police datasets and spatial analysis techniques can be applied in practice to support crime pattern analysis, pattern-of-life assessments, and link analysis.

Training opportunities in GIS will also be discussed, showing how analysts with limited GIS experience can integrate geospatial tools into their daily workflows, improving efficiency and enabling more effective, data-driven decision-making within their agencies.
