Prof. Kim Rossmo on Geographic Profiling - interview

Prof. Kim Rossmo on Geographic Profiling

This interview with the person who coined the term ‘geographic profiling’ in 2000 through his seminal book of the same name covers a lot of information, including: What is geographic profiling? How can you use geographic profiling in single offence cases? Can geographic profiling solve crimes? How do you use geographic profiling? When is the perpetrator the most vulnerable? If you can’t catch him in the act, when is the best time to identify him? How has geographic profiling changed over the years? Who is Banksy? Where did Jack The Ripper live? What other information besides crime sites can you use to find a pattern?

Professor Rossmo started out as a Canadian police officer and discovered his passion for geographic profiling whilst doing his Master’s degree and PhD. He later switched to academia, whilst always staying in touch with and serving police practitioners. He has always been very keen that his research be useful, rather than theoretical and ending up on the shelf. He has applied geographic profiling to property and violent crime, zoology and some historical investigations.
