Geographic profiling, or , is a scientific approach that has been applied to forensic investigations for several years. However, it has never been applied to a phenomenon as complex as the search for missing persons. This article presents three Italian case studies in which geographic profiling was used to narrow the areas to search for missing persons. The geographical data were mapped and processed on a geographic information system platform using computational geometry analysis. However, these disappearances occurred during the Italian lockdown period, imposed to address the COVID-19 outbreak, which made the searches slower and more complex than usual.
地理画像，或称 ，是一种已应用于法医调查数年的科学方法。然而，它从未被应用于像寻找失踪人员这样复杂的现象。本文介绍了三个意大利案例研究，其中地理画像被用于缩小寻找失踪人员的搜索区域。地理数据在地理信息系统平台上使用计算几何分析进行映射和处理。然而，这些失踪事件发生在意大利为应对新冠疫情爆发而实施的封锁期间，这使得搜索比平时更加缓慢和复杂。
