A Crime Analyst's Guide to Mapping

Part of: Electronic Documents of Illinois

Crime mapping utilized in conjunction with crime analysis has become a key step in the sequence of activities aimed at conceiving, implementing, and evaluating measures to prevent crime. The manual is primarily intended for the beginning analyst working at small- and medium-sized police departments, although experienced crime mappers may learn from later chapters. This manual is not intended as a guide to any particular software, but as a guide for understanding general mapping, GIS, and spatial analysis concepts. Readers will also get a flavor for how mapping can be used to assist police department personnel, from the chief, to investigators, to patrol officers.

2001-2002 Illinois Hunter Harvest Report

Part of: Electronic Documents of Illinois

A random sample of 3,000 hunters was selected from the purchasers of 2001 Illinois Habitat Stamps and resident hunting licenses. The sample was evenly divided between each sample frame (habitat stamps and hunting license). Of the sample of 3,000 hunters, 2,902 questionnaires were deliverable. We received 1,906 (66%) questionnaires, 1,883 of which were usable. License sales increased 2.1% from 2000 (290,000) to the 2001 season (296,000). From 2000-2001 to 2001-2002, harvests increased for 4 game animal categories (woodcock, gray squirrel, raccoon, and coyote), decreased for 8 game animal categories (rabbit, quail, pheasant, dove, gray partridge, fox squirrel, red fox, and opossum), and did not change for 1 category (gray fox). Activities of hunters and types of land hunted were profiled, as were attitudes toward hunting programs and general information about hunters.

100 - year rainstorms in the Midwest: design characteristics

Part of: Electronic Documents of Illinois

This document provides pertinent information on the spatial distribution characteristics of extremely heavy rainstorm events in Illinois and the Midwest. Relations were developed for those storms in which maximum rainfall at the center equaled or exceeded the point maximum experienced on the average of once in 100 years or longer. The study was limited to this group of storms because of existing needs for information on these extreme storm events in the design and operation of water control structures in small basins. It is recommended for use in conjunction with Illinois State Water Survey Bulletin 70, Bulletin 71 (Midwestern Climate Center Research Report 92-03), and Water Survey Circular 173 for runoff computations related to the design and operation of runoff control structures in small basins subject to extreme rainfall events. Area-depth relations were derived from information obtained through operation of several dense raingage networks, detailed field surveys and analyses of severe rainstorms in Illinois, analyses of heavy rainstorms in a six-basin hydroclimatic study, and exceptional storms recorded by the climate network of the National Weather Service in Illinois. Using data and information from these sources, curves defining spatial distributions for storms of various areal extent were derived. Results are presented in a form readily adaptable for use by hydrologists or other interested users.
