Crime Prevention through Interactive Environmental Design (CPTIED) is a smart phone interface that helps create safe environments from the feelings and information provided by citizens. Data on crime occurrence and fear of crime are accumulated in real time in order to draw up a map of criminal spots. The interface projects analytical results for all the data on the criminal spot map, showing the level of danger according to the gender, age, and time of day. The data are accumulated in real-time through a succession, and transmitted to policy maker, administrators, environmental designers, and the police.

Swarm intelligence Swam theory focuses on the collective behaviors that result from the local interactions of the individuals with each other and with their environment. Through CPTIED, we can identify a stream of crime and fear of crime from the feelings and information provided by citizens.
DATA USAGE Real-time information of crime and fear of crime We can make fast action against crimes through real-time information. For example, it is possible to find that the emergency spot is crime-ridden for woman at night through data analysis. Users can request setting up security cameras and additional streetlamps and rearranging patrolmen.
We can arrange patrolling manpower at hot spots following to time slot. Fear of crime increase sharply after sunset

Keywords school crime; way home from school; cognitive map; crime prevention through environmental design (CPTED)
The purpose of this paper was to determine criminal spots on the way home from school for middle-school students. Through a cognitive map analysis, the findings of this paper are as follows: first, the frequency of where fear of crime was felt was greater than that of actual crime, and the fear of crime did not closely reflect crime occurrence. Second, females had more fear of crime spots than males. Third, students feel fear mostly for reasons related to human factors rather than to space factors. Fourth, mixed-use building regions were the most commonly cited criminal regions. Places associated with territoriality were commonly cited as criminal spots. This result was different than those in an earlier CPTED theory.

Reference Paper Soyeon Lee, Mikyoung Ha (Accepted) The duality of visibility: Does visibility increase or decrease the fear of crime in
exterior environments?, Journal of Asian Architecture and Building Engineering. (A&HCI, SCIE)
Keywords visibility; fear of crime; elementary school; geographic information system (GIS); Space Syntax
This study suggests empirical evidence of the relationship between visibility and fear of crime in environments using an automated quantitative analysis method. Spots where children felt fear in exterior areas of elementary schools were aggregated, and their characteristics were analyzed with two visibility dimensions of visual connectivity with no visible distance restrictions and with visible distances restricted. In general, locations with lower levels of visibility reported higher levels of fear of crime. However, where there was very high visibility, fear of crime also increased. Visibility has a dual nature, both increasing and decreasing fear of crime in environments. With the assistance of methods and results of this study, designers can plan safer environments and improve existing environments by considering visibility in a systematic and significant manner.
