WASHINGTON: With the introduction of a new technology, which analyses crime data over a ten-year period, the police would now be able to predict the number and type of crimes that will occur in a given neighbourhood one month in advance, media reports claimed.

Researchers at Carnegie Mellon University, who have developed the software, claim that the technology can forecast the number and types of crimes that will occur within a ten-block area with a 20 per cent error rate.

"This is the next generation of crime mapping", Wipen Gorr, a Carnegie Mellon professor of public policy and management information systems said.

A small team of researchers is running final tests on the project, which is funded by the National Institute of Justice, the research wing of the Department of Justice.

The scientists plan to release the novel system later this summer.
