• Geographic Introduction System
• Geologic Information System
• Geologic Introduction System

Harvard University developed this program that produced most early crime maps.

• SYMAP
• MYMAP
• SYNMAP
• GEOMAP

The SYMAP variant that used line renditions on a plotter to produce three-dimensional visualizations of a crime map.

• SYMVU
• SYMAP 2.0
• SYMVU 2
• GIS

Crime analysts were the primary users of mapping, with relatively few patrol offices involved. The types of data most likely to be mapped were the following factors, EXPECT

• Map projections
• Call of service

• Raster
• Vector
• Alpha
• Omega

This map built from digitized points that may be joined to form lines, and polygons, or closed shapes.

These contain address ranges rather than individual addresses, an address range refers to the first and last possible structure numbers along a block face, even though the physical structures may not exist.

• TIGER files
• LION files
• PUMA files
• JAGUAR files

This is vitally important for crime mapping since it is the most commonly used way of getting crime or crime-related data into a GIS.
