Abstract [en]

Knowing where crime takes place or how it is distributed over time and space can be important to understanding its nature and helping experts tackle it. In this chapter, we discuss the use of geographical information (GI), in particular Geographical Information Systems (GIS), in rural criminological research. We report methodological challenges and opportunities with a number of examples from the current literature, from a risk map of drug-related crimes to remote-sensing data in the investigation of environmental and wildlife crimes (EWC). We finalize the chapter by reaching forward to what lies ahead in terms of research frontiers.
