RCMP Crime Mapping
About the Mapping Project
Crime mapping is an innovative tool by which the Alberta RCMP is tackling the few offenders who commit the most crimes. This project allows the RCMP to continue increasing inter-agency communication and sharing criminal intelligence with its partners. It also encourages Albertans to participate in crime prevention strategies, such as reporting suspicious persons or activity, in an effort to be the extra set of eyes and ears for police in their communities. Athabasca County has added this mapping feature to our website to make everyone aware of current crime trends.
Information about the Map
Only certain crime types will be presented on the map:
- Theft from Motor Vehicle;
- Theft of Motor Vehicle;
- Theft over / under $5000;
- Break & Enter;
- Mischief; and
- Missing Persons
Emergency Situation Flags will only be used in emergency situations and for very short periods (school lockdown, unfolding dangerous situation, evacuation, train derailment etc.) Plotted addresses will not be exact but rather a nearby intersection or street. Entries will be removed automatically after 14 days.
