Risk Terrain Modeling (RTM) is an approach to risk assessment in which separate map layers representing the spatial influence and intensity of a crime risk factor is created in a geographic information system (GIS). Then all map layers are combined to produce a composite risk terrain map with values that account for all risk factors at every place throughout the landscape. RTM builds upon principles of hotspot mapping, environmental criminology, and problem-oriented policing to produce maps that show where conditions are ideal or conducive for crimes to occur given the environmental contexts....

There are many concepts, theories, technologies, and ideas that we rely on in the course of work as criminologists and crime analysts. This book summarizes how we understand them and how they relate to crime and illegal behavior at certain places. We can support all of the statements with prior or ongoing empirical research, professional experiences, and expert practitioner knowledge. But, we do not bore you with the details here.
