ChicagoCrime.org and Google Maps

Links,Technology Friday 20th May 2005

Another super-cool use of Google maps here. Chicago Crime plots all the crime data made available from the Chicago Police Department. Check out all crimes reported in the 3 a.m. hour on May 5, 2005 in Chicago. You can even map out all the prostitution busts. Excellent combination of the two technologies. Needless to say I’m working on something very similar at the moment for Google Sightseeing.

  1. It’s like something out of GTA…

    “Hey Gerry – I need some crack!”
    “No problem Tony head to this group of streets – just watch for the cops!”
    “You da man Gerry”
