NEXT-GENERATION MAPS LEND NEW PERSPECTIVE - MIPT Terrorism Knowledge Base

http://www.tkb.org/Home.jsp
TKB now offers highly interactive maps that give new vantage points for studying terrorism over space and time. With dozens of new options, users can, for example, filter terrorist incidents by date or tactic and view them in relation to land use, administrative districts, or population density. New tools allow more control over the color and size of incident plots.

In addition to the traditional map backgrounds, we have added a new dimension with satellite country views. Regional maps showing relative terrorist incident intensity are also available. Maps can be saved and added to presentations and briefings by right-clicking.
