Crime geography
Heat-informed map framing with policing and transit anchors.
Prototype · Australia-focused
One payment unlocks a structured briefing that combines police-recorded offences, mapped infrastructure, and (where available) public community chatter—summarised so you can act confidently.
Enter a suburb or postcode. Metrics auto-map to a QPS police district (North or South Brisbane in this build). Map and narrative stay illustrative.
Production build wires a Stripe Payment Link or Checkout Session. Email capture precedes PDF delivery and receipt.
Four coordinated views mirror the downloadable PDF narrative: map context, verified stats, qualitative signals, then infrastructure grounding.
Heat-informed map framing with policing and transit anchors.
Category totals, trend direction, analyst-style callouts.
Topic bullets extracted from noisy public chatter (planned integration).
Schools, stations, beats—proximity-aware copy for purchasers.

Covers compilation, visuals, PDF packaging, and email delivery path. Taxes additional if applicable.
Lean operations
Targets a micro-SaaS where low fixed infra matters more than squeezing marginal latency. Figures are illustrative—revise quarterly.

Credits may cover Places + Maps if traffic stays modest.
AUD $0
Licence-checked extracts ingested nightly or weekly.
AUD $0–120+
Hosted scrapers/residential proxies spike costs—design graceful degradation first.

Production pipeline
Mixed view: live QPS district CSV metrics (where the API succeeds) plus illustrative suburb context, sentiment, and maps. Always follow each upstream licence and attribution rule.
Monthly reported offence counts and rates by crime type and geographic area are published on the Queensland Open Data Portal. Use bulk CSV for a local warehouse, or the portal’s CKAN API for programmatic discovery and resource URLs.

CKAN API reference
Use the official map to align product language with QPS offence groupings (e.g. Unlawful Entry, Property Damage, Assault)—not as a scrape target. Locations are approximate; read the map’s own limitations and disclaimers.

/api/qld-crime?district=South%20Brisbane/api/qld-crime?district=North%20BrisbaneCombine Google’s Places APIs for live points of interest (police, stations, retail hubs) with Queensland’s official school location products where you need department-verified coordinates or catchment context.
Suitable for nearest police stations, rail stations, shopping centres, and other place types around a searched suburb or geocode—subject to Google’s terms and billing.
Official state school geographic products and related education datasets on the portal—use for authoritative coordinates and catchments instead of, or alongside, Google results.
Production version should disclose refresh cadence, licensing, and omit social module when upstream fails rather than silently degrading QA.
