With 25 years of experience in law enforcement and security, AusGeoProfiling brings unmatched operational and academic expertise to geo-profiling in Australia. Established within the Australian Federal Police in 2020, this capability was first embedded in the Forensic Intelligence Unit, where it demonstrated measurable success across serial crime and no-body homicide investigations. Our experience includes analysis of serial burglary, motor vehicle theft, and sexual assault cases, as well as complex no-body homicides and cold cases. In one notable instance, geographic profiling directed investigators to within 250 m of a body disposal site — a result achieved through structured spatial analysis and evidence-based search planning. AusGeoProfiling has trained police and forensic professionals across Australia, as well as international investigators in Pakistan, and criminology students at various universities. These programs combine operational realism with academic depth, ensuring every participant leaves with practical, defensible skills that enhance real-world investigations. Founder and lead profiler Adam, Australia’s only certified Geographic Profiler, holds qualifications in policing, forensic psychology, and financial crime, and is completing PhD research at the University of Technology Sydney on the stages of non-organised homicide. His approach to justice mapping combines science, collaboration, and respect for the work of investigators who seek justice for victims and their families.

Our November 2025 question comes from Doug, and he asks: "Which case types-homicide, missing persons, serial crime, or others-tend to benefit the most from the methodology you use?"


Great question, Doug. Thank you, and there's a bit to unpack here.

 

Geographic profiling is functional and beneficial across a wide range of case types. The methodology is designed to identify patterns in how an offender, or any decision-making entity, moves through space and time. This makes it applicable to serial crime, no-body homicides, missing persons, and a variety of other investigations where location choices matter.


My operational experience has been most substantial in serial offences and no-body homicide cases. These cases often contain multiple activity points, which allows the model to work at its best. When there are at least five locations that reflect an offender’s decision-making, geographic profiling can narrow search areas, prioritise suspects, and highlight overlooked patterns.


One thing I emphasise in training is that I can’t be the expert on every scenario that someone brings into the room. Students often present new and unexpected problems, and that’s where geographic profiling shows its flexibility. In one course, a student asked whether the method could be used to find a crocodile responsible for attacking pets and people. In another case, someone wanted to understand why garden gnomes were being stolen from multiple properties, and obviously, where they could be found. Both examples involved an “offender” selecting targets based on opportunity, access, and familiarity with the environment.


As long as there are enough locations to analyse, the behaviour (whether human or animal) can be modelled. With the proper evidence and a clear understanding of the context, geographic profiling can effectively support investigations that fall outside traditional categories.


All the best on your geo-profiling journey, Doug, and thank you again for being a loyal subscriber.
