The Planimetry Hotbed Forensic named «PLANIFORENSE» It is established as a space for study and practical application dedicated to the analysis and interpretation of plans and maps in the field of criminal investigation and public safety. In a context where planimetry plays a fundamental role in the recreation crime scenes and the development of security strategies, this training center is presented as a place to develop technical and scientific skills in the interpretation of graphic representations of the terrain.
It is comprised of students interested in criminal investigation and citizen security. Its objective is to contribute to the development of skills in the field of planimetry, train future experts in map and plan analysis, and promote effective and ethical investigative practices in the use of cartographic tools.
Principles of Cartography: The incubator aims to provide theoretical and practical training in the interpretation of topographic, urban and cadastral plans and maps. Through practical exercises and case studies, participants will acquire skills to analyze and understand the information represented in different types of cartography, thus facilitating the reconstruction of crime scenes and the planning of security operations.
Skill Development in Cartographic Analysis: The incubator seeks to develop skills in the analysis of maps and plans in the context of criminal investigation and public safety. Participants will learn to identify relevant elements on maps, such as points of interest, escape routes and risk areas, and use this information to develop prevention and response strategies in criminal situations.
Application of Technology in Forensic Planimetry: One of the main objectives of the workshop is to familiarize participants with the use of cartographic technology and Geography of Information Systems (GIS) tools in planimetry. Through practical exercises and specialized workshops, the use of software and cartographic applications for the preparation of thematic maps and spatial analysis of criminal phenomena will be promoted.
The Forensic Planimetry Seedbed: «PLANIFORENSE» It is based on solid conceptual and theoretical bases in the field of cartography, which include:
