SaferMK – UK Based Crime Mapping By Vector One ⋅ September 7, 2010

SaferMK – UK Based Crime Mapping

One of the benefits of mapping technologies lies in their ability to provide useful information to citizens in the communities where they live – actionable information. The SaferMK website enables citizens in Milton Keynes to keep-up-to-date with the latest information in their community through maps.
“The SaferMK Community Safety Mapping site provides comprehensive crime and anti-social behaviour data for every estate, town or village in the Milton Keynes borough. However, in comparison to other cities and large towns in the UK, Milton Keynes has relatively low level of crime and anti-social behaviour; and SaferMK is proactively working with our partners to deal with crime and anti-social behaviour throughout the borough. “
This technology is based on work by Zube Geospatial.
I spent some time on this website and like the ease-of-use and straightforward ability to get around and find out what is happening. It is simple and easy to use. The map information is high quality and informative. The benefits are determined from time to time through Safety Surveys and the Neighbourhood Action Groups (NAGs) are involved as well.
