This paper describes some benefits of crime mapping in a Geographic Information Systems (G.I.S.) environment. The underlining principle of Journey to Crime was discussed. Crime Spots and Police Stations in the study area were mapped, Shortest-Path, Closest Facility, Service Area and OD (Origin – Destination) Cost Matrix were determined based on Dijkstra's Algorithm. Results show that the distribution of police stations does not correspond with the spread of crime spots.
