The Services we offer

QPS Crime Map
The QPS Information & Communications Technology Command have developed a crime statistics portal providing a geographical analysis of crime in your area. Searches can be made by entering a suburb, street name, post code, a specific time period or an offence. An area map will appear with red dots that represent where the crimes have occurred, what type of offences they were, and if solved or unsolved. Information can be represented as heat maps, graphs or interrogated through a 24-hour wheel function. Data contained in the portal dates back 13 years with the up-to-date information being a week in arrears.
