<div dir="ltr"><div><div><div><div>Dear All,<br></div>I am wondering if there is or how I would compile a list of all the open source tools (or even non open source I guess) that could perform spatio-temporal risk modeling/risk terrain modeling/prediction. (I am not a data scientist so I am not familiar with the terms).<br><br></div>The ones I know of are<br></div>a) Risk Terrain Modeling from Rutgers, not really open source but you can put in a bunch of location-based factors/characteristics and historical data and it can predict things on a map.</div><div><br></div>b) I have heard ESRI Spatial Analysis Toolkit can do this: <br clear="all"><div><a href="http://pro.arcgis.com/en/pro-app/tool-reference/spatial-analyst/an-overview-of-the-spatial-analyst-toolbox.htm" target="_blank">http://pro.arcgis.com/en/pro-<wbr>app/tool-reference/spatial-<wbr>analyst/an-overview-of-the-<wbr>spatial-analyst-toolbox.htm</a> Also not open source</div><div><br></div><div>c) Maybe SatScan? Seems open source, but not sure it has the machine learning/predictive modeling piece.<br></div><div><a href="https://www.satscan.org/">https://www.satscan.org/</a></div><div><br></div><div>I am working on a project to see what open source options there are for people trying to do prediction such as is shown here: <a href="http://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0145213416301922">http://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0145213416301922</a> . <br></div><div><br></div><div>The work we are doing is related to predicting the non-person based, but location-based characteristics that might predict locations where child abuse or neglect is high, and I would love anyone who is interested in that cause who might want to help us! We lack free/volunteer data science expertise. (please don't respond if you have a commercial interest, we are committed to completely open source and can't afford to hire a data scientist to answer the questions above, sorry).<br></div><div><br></div><div>Thanks</div><div>Shawn<br></div><div><div><div><div><div><div><div class="gmail_signature"><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div><br></div><div>Shawn Dolley</div><div>Board of Directors</div><div>Predict Align Prevent, Inc.<br></div><div>a 501(c)(3) organization</div><div>mobile: 202-460-4660</div><div><a href="mailto:shawn@predict-align-prevent.org" target="_blank">shawn@predict-align-prevent.org</a><br></div><div>@shawndolley</div></div></div></div></div></div>
