Safe Night® Utilizes RTM as Our Primary Tool for Assessment
Risk Terrain Modeling (RTM)
“RTM is risk assessment for places. It’s a data analysis technique. And it’s a diagnostic tool. When used for crime analysis, RTM identifies environmental conditions that contribute to crime problems. Different crime incident locations can have common underlying causes. That is, events may be unrelated, but attractive settings for them may share similar qualities. RTM sheds light on why crimes pattern the way they do. It puts the focus on places, not people."
- Dr. Joel Caplan, Co-creator of Risk Terrain Modeling, Professor at Rutgers University School of Criminal Justice and Chief Operating Officer of Simsi.
