Crime can be the result of different negative behaviours, such as heavy drinking, drugs, accidents, etc. Our website will display user-selected layers on top of each others over Victoria map to shed some light into the connection between crime and other behaviours.
Basic layers include accidents, drug use, various crime type. If an area has a higher density of incidents, it may indicate that something needs to be done in that area.
Data usage: Victoria suburb boundaries dataset, Vicroads accident dataset, crime dataset.
Places change, always. The way they look, the way they feel, and the way we use them, remember them and imagine them. What we value about a place changes too. What’s important today, was not so important yesterday. Who knows what will be important tomorrow?
