What Crimora does

Crime data, made clear

Raw crime statistics are hard to read and harder to act on. Crimora turns them into a living map you can actually understand.

Live community heatmap

An interactive map of community-reported incidents, weighted by severity and faded by age, so it shows what is happening now rather than everything that ever happened.

Official SAPS statistics

Built on the South African Police Service's official crime figures across all 1,140+ stations — the authoritative national dataset, not guesswork.

Community reporting

Registered users can report incidents on the map, adding a real-time layer that official statistics, published yearly, cannot capture on their own.

Safety analytics

Filter by crime type, location and time to see patterns and hotspots — turning a wall of numbers into decisions you can make about your day.

Where the data comes from

Grounded in real sources

Crimora combines the official national record with on-the-ground reports, plotted against real police-station geography.

SAPS official statistics

The South African Police Service's published crime statistics — the primary, authoritative source, covering every police station nationwide.

Police-station geography

Official station coordinates, so every report is labelled with the police-station area it actually falls in — the same areas the official statistics are published for.

Community reports

Verified user submissions add timeliness between official releases, surfacing what's happening now.

Transparent by design

We're clear about what each data layer is and where it comes from, so you can weigh it appropriately.

Crimora is not an emergency service. If you are in danger or witnessing a crime in progress, call the SAPS emergency line on 10111 immediately. Crimora is an information and awareness tool, not a substitute for emergency services.
