Resumen

El mapa del delito consiste en una representación de un conjunto de datos espaciales obtenidos a partir eventos delictivos registrados y de otros problemas asociados a éstos. La Ley de Concentración del Delito de Weisburd se encuentra ampliamente difundida para el estudio de hot spots; éstos no informan solamente sobre la concentración de los delitos, sino que también revelan información acerca del contexto donde ocurren. El presente artículo describe una metodología para identificar y medir los hot spots en micro unidades geográficas que consisten en segmentos de calle. Y aplica esta metodología para analizar la concentración del delito de robo ocurrido en la Ciudad Autónoma de Buenos Aires (República Argentina), durante el período comprendido entre los años 2017 y 2021. Este enfoque resulta prometedor para la prevención del delito tanto en el campo policial como en el marco de la criminología ambiental.
