Abstract: A wide range of GIS/map based crime statistics are available on line all over the world. However, the public opinion of these statistics is that they do not show the real extent of crime (NYÍRI 2005). This study attempts to test the reliability of crime statistics by mapping residents’ fear of crime. The result supports the idea that public perception of crime may be different from official data. Therefore it may be useful and necessary to test the citizens’ opinion as an essential requirement in planning, policy and law enforcement strategies to increase their effectiveness.

GIS as a technology has come a long way, from
the early adoption of technical wizardry to the
ubiquitous, if unconscious use by the masses. The
emergence of a GISociety is on its way through
technological development, theoretical and empirical
scientific research and inclusion of technology
into education with increasing pedagogical justification.
Defining new dimensions of hard- and software,
brainware and orgware are all needed to
further enhance the GISociety with new geospatial
innovations.
