Ubiquitous Crime Prevention System (UCPS) for a Safer City

Since crime has damaged citizens’ lives and properties, establishing a safe urban environment has been a crucial social issue. New approaches using big data and ICT prove to reduce crime rates. This study therefore reports the results of big data analyses, which includes not only real crime data, but also urban attributes such as land use, and pedestrian flows, etc. A ‘Ubiquitous Crime (U-Crime) prevention system (UCPS)’ operating on the web is proposed. The results can be used as a guideline for system development and a decision support system for establishing security policies.
