Abstract: The SIM4SECURITY aims to build a technological solution to support decision making, in terms of public security policies, based on the development of a GIS model and in the preparation of demographic scenarios, which may improve the effectiveness of the operational activity of the security forces. Overall, the project aims to provide an extensive and comprehensive assessment and spatial analysis of the security sector versus population needs that has never been performed for Portugal.
