Building the Foundations of a Forensic Intelligence Tool in Belgium

International research shows that forensic intelligence can improve the criminal analysis process. This research project aims to map the Belgian intelligence landscape. This specifically includes the institutions, laws, and actors who govern this area. The research will examine the forensic data and the conditions by which it is obtained and organized. Further, we will examine the feasibility and added value of a forensic intelligence tool in Belgium. This task will include statistical analysis of crime data and social network theory to compare police-only record data and forensic intelligence... Mehr ...

International research shows that forensic intelligence can improve the criminal analysis process. This research project aims to map the Belgian intelligence landscape. This specifically includes the institutions, laws, and actors who govern this area. The research will examine the forensic data and the conditions by which it is obtained and organized. Further, we will examine the feasibility and added value of a forensic intelligence tool in Belgium. This task will include statistical analysis of crime data and social network theory to compare police-only record data and forensic intelligence data. This will result in recommendations and structural guidelines at a strategic level to guide criminal policy decision-makers on how to move forward with a forensic intelligence tool. The aim of the project is for a better understanding of forensic intelligence as a whole and to contribute to scientifically-based recommendations for relevant actors.
