Teaching-Learning Activity/Lesson Proper:
Crime mapping is very important in police planning as regards crime suppression or prevention. It could
readily pinpoint to po ice managers where and when crimes happen within the area Of-responsibility (AOR)ff a
certain police unit or station. By just looking at their crime mapping; they could be immediately provided with
information necessary for planning rather than going over their police blotter or compilations of reports. Because
crime mapping is essential for planning, it has a time span. It could represent the crimes committed within a week,
month, quarter, semester or year.
Crime mapping consists of its tittle, the map of the AOR of a certain police unit or station, The title indicates
the number of days that it covers whether it is for a week, month, quarter, semester or year. Inside the map are
shown the types and numbers of crimes that happen at specific locations, As shown in the legend, colored plastic
pellets could be used to show the type of crimes committed which are pasted in the map to show where the crimes
actually happened. The crime clock shows when the crimes actually happen and the legend helps the police
manager understands easily the crime mapping.
For instance in the crime mapping of a certain police station, it shows that crimes against person like
murder, homicide and physical injury happen from 11:00 0'clock at night to 3:00 0'clock in the early morning at
specific places, the chief of police may do something in order to address the problem, like giving more focus or
attention by deploying more police personnel at the specific place and time. He might also consider as beneficial
the help of force multipliers like BPAT, NGOs and other volunteers. The police chief, if he wants to prevent the
commission of crimes in these areas where crimes usually happen as shown in the crime mapping may direct his
patrolmen to be in their proper uniforms at all times, aggressively patrol their beats and position themselves in
very conspicuous places in the areas so that as much as possible, all would be criminals could see them — thereby
discouraging them to commit crimes. On the other hand, if he would like to arrest the criminals inflagrante delicto,
he may deploy his police personnel in civilian attire so that, the criminals, seeing there are no police officers

around, commit crimes — only to be arrested on the spot. Another way that the Crime Mapping could be useful is
that if the police chief, after looking at the crime mapping decides to go to the exact location where crimes had
happened at the exact time they had been committed, he can always do it for him to see and know by himself how
come crimes proliferate in these places at certain times.
The police do not only maintain crime mapping, they also have Traffic Mapping or sometimes called
Traffic Spot Maps. Their traffic mapping indicates places in the AOR with heavy traffic congestions at specific times
of the day. Because a police officer on patrol should not be in places where he is not needed, the traffic mapping
could tell the traffic police officer where he should be — at places where there is heavy traffic congestion. In other
words, by means of the traffic mapping, police traffic officers could focus or concentrate their effort of maintaining
traffic order at specific places as indicated in the traffic mapping, especially if the office has an insufficient number
of traffic personnel. Because heavy traffic congestion is dependent on the movement of people, motor vehicles and
everything that uses the traffic way, it is recommended that there should be separate crime mapping for weekdays,
Saturdays and Sundays.
