An information system for judicial and public administration using artificial intelligence and geospatial data

Abstract

The adoption of information technology in judicial and public administration has become a major need nowadays with the rapid growth of information regarding managerial issues. This paper presents an advanced methodology developed by using Information and Communication Technologies (ICT) and artificial intelligence to support decision making in public and judicial administration. A prototype Management Information System for public administration (MISPA) was developed to provide a computerized way of managing geospatial urban, environmental and crime data of an urban area. This system was developed by using several programming languages, a Database Management System (DBMS) and other technologies and programming tools. The proposed system was developed aiming at the systemization and modernization of public, judicial and police authorities that are associated with issues that have to be dealt by studying urban data regarding crime and environmental data and supports decision making based on crime forecasting.
