Summary:In this article, we present the use of risk terrain modeling for the risk assessment of explosive ATM attacks in North Rhine-Westphalia, Germany. We give a brief overview of three methods used for this purpose: risk terrain modeling, recapture rate index, and time series analysis. The results show that by using these methods, police can gain a deeper understanding of the patterns and trends associated with explosive ATM attacks and better allocate their resources by focusing on higher-risk ATMs.
