Hot spot analysis is a standard practice used by many police agencies to identify clusters of incidents occurring in their jurisdictions. By identifying clusters (or hot spots) of activity, police are better able to focus enforcement strategies and tactics on these clusters and more effectively respond to problems. Hot spot policing is supported by decades of research and evidence that have shown that by focusing on hot spots, police can have a significant impact on crime and disorder in those areas.<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"undefined block-editor-paragraph\">In this blog, we will discuss three tools that you can use to support basic hot spot analysis:<\/p>\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Kernel Density Tool<\/strong><\/li>\n\n<li><strong>Minus Tool<\/strong><\/li>\n\n<li><strong>Density-Based Clustering Tool<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-kernel-density-tool\"><strong>Kernel Density Tool<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n<p class=\"undefined block-editor-paragraph\">You are probably already familiar with Kernel Density Estimation (KDE). Crime analysts for decades have used it to help visualize the density of point features and is the go-to tool that many analysts still use when creating hot spot maps for their agencies. When the <em>Kernel Density <\/em>tool is run, it creates a single smooth density raster surface layer over the input points. The output of the density will change based on the parameters entered into the tool, including the search radius and cell size used.<\/p>\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"624\" height=\"386\" src=\"https:\/\/uat.esri.com\/en-us\/industries\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/crima-analysis-1.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-404302\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/en-us\/industries\/blog\/app\/uploads\/2022\/03\/crima-analysis-1.png 624w, https:\/\/www.esri.com\/en-us\/industries\/blog\/app\/uploads\/2022\/03\/crima-analysis-1-300x186.png 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 624px) 100vw, 624px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-minus-tool\"><strong>Minus Tool<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n<p class=\"undefined block-editor-paragraph\">The <em>Minus<\/em> tool can be used to subtract one kernel density raster output from another to measure changes in density from one time period to the next. This tool can be useful in comparing reporting periods such as comparing this month&#8217;s output to last month&#8217;s output or to help understand the dynamics at work in a jurisdiction by looking at daytime vs. nighttime hot spots of activity.<\/p>\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"624\" height=\"386\" src=\"https:\/\/uat.esri.com\/en-us\/industries\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/crime-analysis-2.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-404312\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/en-us\/industries\/blog\/app\/uploads\/2022\/03\/crime-analysis-2.png 624w, https:\/\/www.esri.com\/en-us\/industries\/blog\/app\/uploads\/2022\/03\/crime-analysis-2-300x186.png 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 624px) 100vw, 624px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-density-based-clustering-tool\"><strong>Density-Based Clustering Tool<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n<p class=\"undefined block-editor-paragraph\">Finally, we will look at the <em>Density-Based Clustering<\/em> tool that uses machine learning to create an output layer of incidents comprising a cluster. Clustering is a type of machine learning and exploratory data analysis technique that when run on a set of data points, such as crime data, creates an output of clusters where the density of similar incident points is high. Unlike KDE, the output of this tool is not a raster but a group of unique and like-colored points for each discrete cluster in the data.<\/p>\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"624\" height=\"386\" src=\"https:\/\/uat.esri.com\/en-us\/industries\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/crime-analysis-3.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-404322\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/en-us\/industries\/blog\/app\/uploads\/2022\/03\/crime-analysis-3.png 624w, https:\/\/www.esri.com\/en-us\/industries\/blog\/app\/uploads\/2022\/03\/crime-analysis-3-300x186.png 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 624px) 100vw, 624px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n<p class=\"undefined block-editor-paragraph\">All three hot spot tools can be used together to give your agency a basic understanding of where clusters of incidents are occurring; to compare changes in hot spot activity; and, in the case of the <em>Density-Based Clustering<\/em> tool, as an alternative analysis to validate or complement kernel density output results. In this accompanying video, Chris Delaney details how each tool works.<\/p>\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\nhttps:\/\/mediaspace.esri.com\/embed\/secure\/iframe\/entryId\/1_hhes6g6h\/uiConfId\/49028003\/pbc\/238782493\/st\/0\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-additional-resources\"><strong>Additional Resources<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n<p class=\"undefined block-editor-paragraph\">Thanks for joining us for this installment in the Crime Analysis blog series.
