The Crime Visualization Tool displays connections, or network, between persons, vehicles, addresses, phones, and involvement in police-related events in a graphical format to identify complex relationships, which then improves the likelihood of solving more crimes. The Crime Visualization Tool produces a graph, also known as the Spider Chart, because of its web-like appearance.
The Spider Chart is made up of Network Associations that are connected: people, places, things, and events, including incidents, field contacts, cases, field arrests, and custom forms.
