Abstract
Pursuing criminal activity is tied with understanding illegal or unlawful actions taken on opportunity within a geographic location. Mapping such activities can aid significantly in determining the health of a region, and the vicissitudes of civilian life. Methods to track crime and criminal activity after the fact by mapping news reports of it to geographic locations using the NewsStand system are discussed. NewsStand provides a map-query interface to monitor over 10,000 RSS news sources and making them available within minutes after publication. NewsStand was designed to collect event data given keywords centered on locations specified textually and mapping these locations to their spatial representation, a procedure called geotagging. The goal is to demonstrate how to detect and classify criminal activity by geotagging keywords pertaining to crime, and, in effect, to enhance the capabilities of NewsStand to explicitly show this category of news. The resulting system is named "CrimeStand".
