Visualization of Police Intelligence Data Based on Word Clouds

This paper studies the method of using word clouds to visualize 110 incidents data. It has been reported that word clouds have become a simple and visual appeal of the visualization method for text. Lots of data are stored in the police intelligence system without a novel visualization method. In this study, we therefore explore the possibility of using word clouds to visualize 110 incidents data. After processing the data, we construct a word cloud of incident type and a key word cloud of the incident information. The combination of the word clouds techniques and 110 incidents data promote the analyst to explore the deep insights.
