The sound of the police...



The new Greater Manchester Police (GMP) website is a geographers dream (link). It features up to date crime statistics for all of Greater Manchester using an interactive map. Click on an area and a detailed mapping of recent crimes is possible. There is also a description of all recent criminal activity in the selected area. Trends can be identified such as burglary or even gang-related activities can be linked to certain locations. This can be used for secondary data on a Human A-Level investigation. Year 13's I see a project coming your way sometime soon....
