| Popis: | The presented map poster represents statistics for 3.46 million events reported to the police in Lithuania in 2015–2019. For eight types of events (violent crime, theft, property crime, economic crime, infringement of public policy, drug-related crime, traffic accidents, various other events), two maps at a scale of 1:3,000,000 are presented. They demonstrate the values of location quotient and the main insights into the dynamics of crime over the five-year timeframe covered by the project. Two maps at scale 1:2,000,000 show the distribution of five types of events that are directly related to the safety of persons – totalling 1.67 million records. One of the larger scale maps depicts the relative crime rate, separately for densely and sparsely populated areas. The second map shows the relative crime risk surface. The maps enable a visual analysis of the most problematic areas in Lithuania and can enable deeper further investigation. |
